Dark cherry, raspberry, peppery and a touch of leaves and earthiness. Rapsberry, blackberries and casssis. Peppery with a touch of earthiness. Drinking very well now and good maturity.

My last of these. I should have checked my notes first, as this is one of those '14 that is still not fully formed - definitely will benefit from more time. I think I got these because the '12 was so delightful - definitely worth seeking out that vintage.

Similar to previous notes. Has a brooding, smokey charcoal character which I like. Will benefit from more time.

Classical style - red fruits esp raspberries with tertiary notes - graphite some earth? Well balanced. Good drink but not the most complex.
Drinking now and is still young so I'd like to revisit in 5 to 10 years with more age on the bottle.
