Now it's really time to drink the last stock - has peaked. Still a good weight, with very bright red fruit on the palate, stills a touch of firmness and some tannin showing on the finish. Still some tannin showing on the finish, with nice creamy quality and good length.

Drink now - has peaked. Not so expressive on the nose, with just a little chalky red fruit poking through.

nose - soy sauce, mouth - a touch thin and austere. less fruity than the nose would suggest. Others though it opened up with time, but I say Drink now.

Decanted for 40 minutes. Complex nose. Aromas of leather, earth, black pepper and black cherry. Well integrated tannins, silky texture. Elegant. Medium finish
