Cellar Favourites: Meaty, floral, graphite and some blackberry - this has really grown in complexity and depth over the past 9 years. The strong fruit remains but the balance is great and there is a lot of interest. Drinking fantastically well at this moment.

Not sure what to make of this wine. It's not awful as such, but there seems to be something not quite right... Colour is a red and plum.. The nose is blackberry and strawberry, but rather muted, dusty/earthy and resinous. Tastes of strawberry and cherry, with a finish that's somewhat bitter with a silly metallic aftertaste. Brett? I really don't know, but other people think so.

Ash, Cherry, raspberry and some musk. Good fruit power, has both savoury and sweet elements. Good flow and acidity. Drinking spot on now.
