  Beautiful! Remarkably youthful and vibrant - you would never have guessed its age. Juicy red berry fruit and now well-integrated oak and mouthfeel. An absolute treat to drink. Mrs H loved this.

  Opened alongside the 2010. This still has plenty of dark fruits: plums, blackberries with a bigger serve of smokey oak on the nose than the 2010. The palate has velvet smooth tannins, with dark fruits, cigarbox, some vanillin oak and a hint of mint. The finish veers into a traditional savoury spice finish. Lovely.

  5th bottle of this vintage and one of the better ones. Plum, raspberry, blackberry fruit notes balanced with aniseed, mint and vanillin oak. Palate is velvet smooth. Finish is lingering - plenty of savoury spice. Delicious. Bottle #5052

  Bottle 4270. Still dark purple in the glass. The nose is big with dark fruits, plums and some aged raisin. The palate has velvet tannins, with big blackberries, plums, some oak vanilla and a hint of mint. Long finish that transposes to savoury spice with more pronounced mint. This is still lovely to drink and in good balance

  Bottle 4273. Slightly Bretty nose, but not too bad. The palate similar to previous '02 bottles, with plums and dark fruits, oak and smooth tannins all well integrated.
