4/22/2019 - rottcodd Likes this wine: 91 pointsDrank over three nights. Tannins are resolved. First night, popped and poured and was pleasant but not inspiring. Second/third nights flavours filled out. On that basis, this could be held a little longer. |

3/2/2019 - rottcodd wrote: 92 pointsLots of sediment clinging to the inside of the bottle. Decanting advised. Agree with previous notes - this wine is a little sweet for my taste. Good fruit and depth of flavour. Tannins seem mostly resolved. Colour is ruby red. Drinks fine on second night so I think I could hold my other bottles another a couple of years. |
