All secondary now. It's not a super complex wine, but has notes of leather, cedar wood, tobacco and a little hint of mint. Drunk over 2 evenings, vacuvin'd overnight. Was better the second day. Nose was very muted, medium/light body, medium finish. Defo time to drink up.

Drank in 2 sittings 3 days apart. Lovely blackcurrant fruit and cassis. Fine tannins. Well balanced body with a long, smooth finish. Hint of tobacco and cedar wood. Really nice wine.

Returned to this a week after opening having vacuvin'd and stored in cool garage. Surprisingly fresh and enjoyable after that time, no sign of it turning. Nice fruity profile of cassis and cherry, actually seemed better than on initial opening.

Simple but pleasant. Lacking a little in secondary character
