  Very dark colour, just a touch of red at the rim. Lots of body. Cocoa, fig. Mouth-coating. An umami/yeasty note. The most 'porty' of the wines tasted tonight.

  Lovely ruby. A bit flat on the nose. Sweet entry, grippy and firm. Spicy! Cherry finish. Concentrated and vinous.

  Ruby with hints of browning. Nebbiolo-esque floral nose. Lots of dark caramel and figgy concentration. Really long. Lovely balance. Kapow!

  Restrained, a tad musty at first, some cigar box developing. Lots of strawberry. Spicy finish. Sherryesque and attenuated.

  Pale brown-tomato colour. Heady, warming, spicy nose - the spirit shows through somewhat. Mellow, sweet, but so elegant, with fine tannins. Dried fruit. Strawberry candy. Cherry and tobacco. Vivid and spicy. Ridiculously long. So much life!

  Much more rancio and vanilla whisky oak on the nose. Vivid orange flavour. Starts sweet and juicy and progresses through towards a woodsier character. Toffee popcorn, ginger. So good.
