Denne skulle ifølge de etablerte anbefalinger her være "gone by far". Men nei. Fortsatt intakt med masse moden frukt og sødme og et lekkert og røft preg av tjære i duften. En skikkelig kosestund med denne, som fikk følge av en velmørnet ytrefilet av okse. Kvalitetstid.

Had this logged in as a Pinotage - must have accidentally been added to a Pinotage order in the dim distant past (have never bought the CS). Impressive. Near clean 2hr decant. Significant clear meniscus but no bricking and a deep red core. Aromas and taste in mid palate of ripe brûlée blackberry and blackcurrant, touches of truffle and liquorice. Dusty smooth tannins and just-so balancing acidity. Medium to good length. Complexity in a medium-bodied frame. À point and for drinking over the next year or two. A surprise singleton.

Dark garnet/black colour; opaque. Aromas of green pepper, medicinal/band-aid, black plums. Medium-bodied with medicine, herbs, and balck fruit. Short finish with some herbaceousness.
