Pours a medium purple in the glass, developing, med + intense aromas of black plum, ripe strawberry, cinnamon, smoke, brambles, salted fruit leather, sous bois, dried rose/black tea, lamb's meat, and crushed limestone, iron/blood. In the mouth, the wine is dry, high acid, med tannin, med/+ body, med alcohol, med + intense in the mouth with a long finish. Overall, very good- can drink now, but has the potential to age.
A very nice wine that I feel is starting to show maturity, this has plenty of time hang around, but the fruit is starting to fade and the tertiary components are really starting to develop. I was surprised how dark fruited this wine is, but I am not conplaining. Awesome stuff

Nice wine. I can’t make much comment as this is past its best, unless my bottle suffered in storage. Some oxidation showing. Definitely time to drink up if my bottle is anything to go by.

Strawberry bonbon, cherry fruit and some plum flesh on the nose. Palate has a little smoky interest, some subtle spice and good cherry fruit acidity. Decent but not good value for the price tag.

Bright mid to light ruby. Rounded mid-red fruit. Very harmonious if not particularly complex or long. A little more cranberry bite with air. Attractive. Ultimately just lacking some complexity and drive, especially for the price tag (£60 on the table). ***1/2

Good, a bit light (even for me who lies very delicate Pinot’s). Went very well with some quickly made salmon.
