  Good tannin level, nice rich colour. Good nose of dark fruits. Pretty long finish with nice acidity level. Will still keep.

  Medium ruby, pale garnet rim. Not much to speak of on the nose, light intensity raspberry fruit, a whiff of orange rind. Medium bodied on the palate, moderate intensity raspberry fruit dying away quickly on a short length tannic finish. This has only gone downhill since last tasted two years ago and I can't see much future in it. Ordinary.

  Pale garnet core, very pale mahogany rim.
  Moderately intense nose with spice, some forest floor and underlying raspberry fruit.
  On the palate this has light/medium intensity raspberry fruit with some spice and forest floor. A little dilute in truth with noticeable, but fine tannins and a short/medium length finish. Even the acidity is a little muted.
  Pleasant enough now, I can't see that this has the structure or depth to go anywhere from here. Then again,with burgundy, there are no certainties!
