  PnP and drunk over 2 hours. Last and best bottle, very mature now with leather and earthy notes under-layered with red fruits, still fresh and strong on the palate, long finish. Drink now or within the next three years.

  Well within the drinking window but on the decline. The fruit is subdued but does offer a strong presence of candied plum with licorice and cardamom lurking behind. The tannins are well integrated yet take a backseat to the slightly more pronounced acidity. Velvety mouth feel, lots of candied licorice and brambly purple fruit. Popped and poured. Drink up.
