Very solid still... and prob 2-4 more years in proper cellar. Dark fruited, neutrally oaked, with correct acid/tannin. Easy to like, subtle earthy notes.

Quite rich and earthy, good colour and body. Not much primary fruit left, very much secondary/tertiary now. A lick of tannin on the mid-palate and finish, supported by good acidity. In a pretty good place at the moment, but could probably improve given a year or two.

Very nice mature red wine. Not sure I would have guessed Beaujolais blind.

As with a previous bottle, this was tainted with band-aid brett.

Black in color. Earthy nose with some cassis. Decent earthy and blackberry palate. A little more fruit would be nice.
