Plummy and bramble nose; some development from the Pinot. Fragrant. However palate is very thin, dilute and slightly vinegary. I'm afraid it shows English reds don't age that well.

Ink, meat and blood in the bouquet. On the palate concentrated cherries, a lot of toast, full bodied and overripe fruits. Nice try, but not really great.

Brambley fruit with a distinctive floral nuance. Palate is quite soft, with lots of plummy damson fruit. Nice wine, slightly short on the finish.
