{magnum, cork, 14%} Looks its age; smells a bit reticent, developed, subtle currant and a lick of briary green eucalypt in the Pyrenees style. Light/medium powdery tannins, low/medium acid. Sound, medium-weight wine, restrained for flavour, tending a bit on the anonymous side. Not terribly exciting, ready to drink I'd say. 750ml bottles likely to be more advanced.

Smokey fruit on the nose, ruby in colour with long legs. Finish lingers mid palate with flavours of berries and oak. Extending cell earring time for another 3yrs before trying the next bottle.

Nice structure and balance. Very nice after 30+ minutes of decanting.
