I grabbed one of these for cooking tonight, after the confirmation on the weekend that this was past it, and bugger me this one is actually quite good! A couple of cups went into the chicken dish and I decided to pour a glass to take some notes and it's not going down the sink after all.
The nose has some ripe fruit and grass and the palette has some nice acidity with a mineral balance, but the finish is quite short and there is a bitter aftertaste, but it's not strong enough to be a major issue.
So there you go.

This is now completely gone and past it. The fruit and it's balancing acidity are all gone and only the mineral and bitter elements remain. Shame I left this too long, as it was a great early drinker.
