in Magnum. P&P. opulent nose, cherry, dark series, coffee, sweet. the palate is round, sweet (a bit too much?) very easy going. it is balanced nonetheless, with enough acidity that keeps the wine from falling on the flabby side. not overly complex but enjoyable. drink or hold for a few year.

Consistent with previous notes. Beautifully balanced - everything beautifully knit together, delightful roundness. My last bottle - it may well last for years further but nice to go out before it starts to fade.

Splash decanted, with Lasagne. Long & savoury. Delicious and still a year or two in hand at its peak.

Rich and leathery with mature stewed cherries and plums. Beautifully layered with character, poise, and energy. Reminds me of why I love wine.

A bit fruitier than previous bottles, and Joe noticed some VA. Still great though.
