Under Cork. Lovely burgundy colour without hint of brown. Great soft dried herb and roses on the nose. Very soft and drinkable still got structure and fine tannins. in a really great place now. Not overly complex but very moreish with good soft length.

This was a bit of a surprise. Slight pong when first popes and decanted. after 5 minutes was looking really interesting. Drank after being in the decanter for 1 hour. Soft and delicious. Almost pinot weight. well balanced and a good length. dusty tannin's and still plenty of sweet fruit. First of a few and I am glad I have more.

This was a 375 half bottle. The bottle is showing no sign of fading. It is in a good place at the moment. Still some sweet fruit and medium body. very approachable. Good length with no alcohol burn. Enjoyed by all.
