Lovely wine, better than last year, in a good place now. It would see this wine needs time. I have none of this vintage left but id say it has a year or two in its window.

Quite nice, and looking over earlier notes, it would seem that patience has prevailed. This wine is developing nicely now showing tertiary elements with tannins to suggest there may be more to come. One more bottle in the cellar.

Better then the last bottle. More expressive. Deeper red berry flavours, cassis. Sweeter fruit on finish. Dusty tannins at first, turn slightly chewy on finish. Nice mineral element, slight greenness on the finish. Nice overall mouthfeel without the thickness ….. cool climate style.

Nice bottle of wine. Clean, good acidity, dusty tannins, still nice fruit. Just seems to be missing a little something. Tasty but not delicious. Proper but not exceptional.

Next day, although still good it had lost brightness on the finish. Drink up
