Autumnal and largely savoury, wrapped around a tight core of fruit sweetness. Cherry, some aniseed and orange peel. Flourish of tannin. Balance and length and freshness all suggest good drinking for another few years and may even improve. Got better with air tonight over 3+ hours.

Canberra Cellar Door Visits 2014: Cherry, blackcurrant, tea and floral notes. Tannins are very strong, the fruit has power and length though so it is not all tannin. I'd look forward to trying this in a couple of years.

Colour: Orange, crimson, brown
Nose: Roses, tar, brambly fruit - a bit subdued
Palette: Cherry, wild strawberry / raspberry, creamy cedar, tar, herbs
Quite a long finish.
Nothing profound or overly memorable but in a good place at the moment after 10 years.
Will probably improve in the short term.
