A well made wine with a lot of fruit - it is cherries, strawberries and raspberries - also some spices - the wine is well balanced - but not a long aftertaste - we end up at 92.

Very similar experience to previous bottles. It surprises me each time at the paleness of the colour and definitely a duskiness to this now. I don't get much nose from it. It's deceptively gentle on the palate with an initial flush of red summer fruit yielding to a more pronounced acidic cherry (?) finish. There's a sense of some depth to the wine and a little bit of length. I'm still undecided as to whether there's anything more to come from these or whether they'll just gently fade from here. One left to see.

Colour: ruby red, rather dark for a PN. Nose: strawberry, raspberry, cherry, clove, pepper, sandalwood...very rich and quite complex. Palate: smooth, fresh (good acidity), long and with a good body (chewier than your avarage PN) with red fruit and spices. A very nice bottle of wine. Will hold for a few years, possibly even get better.

Lovely and feminine. Slightly stemmy, in a good way. 13.5% but seems lower.
