Ach, another dud...weeping cork, light scent of red berries and volatile acidity...tasted much the same; tart, thin, acidic red fruit with the first signs of vinegar developing.

this bottle was not so good...more cork dampness and the wine, though not corked, was thin, tart and unforgiving with metallic notes after about an hour.

Initial panic as the cork was weeping...but upon opening wine proved to be fine, mighty fine in fact - needed about an hour to start to open up so I think there is still some life in this. Relatively simple but well balanced with red berry and spice notes, hints of earth and mushroom. Nice.

Ultimo lunch time tasting (Ultimo wine centre (but now vintage cellars)): The wine has slightly sour red currant and spice aromas with more of the same on the palate. I had some bottles of this previously and it has not improved with time. Nope.
