  Very good example of a wine built for drinking on its own. Big, rich.

  In a beautiful place, plenty of brambly fruit, wonderful mouthfeel, some forest floor notes creeping in to bring complexity. This is what well aged Carlisle is all about.

  From yesterday, no detailed notes. For my tastes, drinking at peak. Balanced, resolved, but still plenty of fruit depth and character (e.g. not over the hill). If I can find my other bottle, I'll be drinking it in the next year or so. No reason to wait.

  Screams well made zin. Bursting with flavor. Lovely integration of black fruits and earth. Alc 15.4% is handled well. Very pure
