Slow oxed for 2 hours then decanted for an hour. Aromas of mint, blackberry, currant, iron and black tea. Flavors of iron, blackberry, currant, plum and hint of cherry. Ends with a 20+ second finish with iron and blackberry notes. Should have read my note from last year because this might have been even better in 2-3 years. Very young still. Best showing yet for this.

Slow oxed for 2.5 hours. Aromas of dried cherry, leather, touch of plum and iron. Flavors of iron, cherry, currant and mineral. Ends with a 15 second finish with iron and roasted herb notes. This is tasting pretty young still. Bit surprised based in n the other notes but I have a cold cellar with great storage.

From a 375ml bottle. This has matured quite a bit since I last tried the 2010 in 2013. Balanced wine. I found it elegant and earthy with notes of dark fruit. Beautiful color and lovely nose. Delighted I have another one of these. We will be enjoying these 2010s for many years to come.

Lacks acidity and bite. Plummy and a little flat.

Easy drinking. Popped and poured. I'd drink sooner rather than later.
