Had this at a lunch picnic and the left overs with dinner. Initally fruity but with some harshness in the finish, could be it was a little cool to start with. The last of the bottle was better and the harshness had gone. No hurry for my last two bottles.

Lovely vibrant fruit on the nose when opened. Good balance and colour. Cassis chocolate coffee some spice nice long finish. i think drinking at its peak so wouldn't hold on too much longer.

Drinking beautifully. Lovely chocolate almond gravel minerality with cherry strawberry fruit hidden in the background. Moves on to reveal vegetal papery tannins. Succulent and full and long.

This had been opened for more than a week and vacuum stored in the fridge. Mellowed nicely in that time. First drink it was all oak maybe too early to open. Later came gravel, dark fruit, bit of spice and chalky tannins. Still quite sharp acidity, mouthfeel a tad rough.
