i wasn't expecting much from this but it was still very much alive and well - not usually my favourite grape but age has softened the wine and added some complexity - would drink soon

Not my style of wine but very well made, and increasingly interesting over time. Sweet, blackcurrant nose and herbs on opening finishes long - but lacks complexity. 2+ hours: creamy, farmyard and darker, some plum; sweetness gone, and less fruit on the palate - much less modern, tannic, only hints of fruit. More to the wine than expected. Nice.
