  Closed. Good structure, but indistinct flavour. Powerful fine-grained tannin. Intense black fruit and graphite; it feels like it should open up to reveal more complex fruit and spice flavours, but it doesn't, even after hours in the decanter.

  Very dark flavours- even some charcoal at the end. Great with some good pizza. Perfect, in fact. Really enjoyed this. Glad I kept it so long. A gift from a good friend. I will tell him soon and repay the gesture.

  Ripe fruit, bilberries, blackberries and black cherries, sweet oak, smooth, warm spices, with enough acidity to keep it fresh. I think I even got some nice minerality there. Matured well, pleasant surprise, may still improve over the next years. 88-89 points. Bit expensive at €15 but at the discount price of 10 euro it's a good QPR.

  Dense and fruity. Still smooth. A nice surprise. Good to drink now but can probably develop over the coming years.
