Had at the BA lounge. Unfortunately all the reds are served at a relatively warm room temperature which is just too high. This wine had been open 6 hours and was served by the glass. Dark red with spice and ripe dark fruit. Pepper like tannin on the finish. Decent.

By the glass at the BA lounge once again from a relatively well opened bottle. Gave this another shot after finding it rather poor a few months ago ( Papies 84) . Less porty and aggressive , more spicy and balanced . A touch on the sweet and modern style but nowhere as bad as last time. 87-88 this time round.

By the glass at the BA lounge from a freshly opened bottle by the looks of it. Prob first glass out. Quite aggressive, ripe, light porty, sharp and maybe could use a chill pill in a way, light spicy, sharp herby side. Lacked a bit of balance if we are honest at this stage. 84
