Saturday, January 30, 2016 - Nutty nose at first, then strong hints of dark cherry and blackcurrant. Full bodied, rich and spicy, with notes of Xmas cake and black cherry jam, but very prominent tannins which suggest this needs a little longer still. Very impressive nonetheless and probably destined for greater pleasure in another three years. Sleek and classy.
