I wasn't sure what to expect with this, but it drank pretty well. Ann loved it. Soft and rich, dark fruited, some earthiness. There is acidity here though to offset the fruit. Some aged, dried fruit character. Pretty solid, really.

90/100 Nose of leather, cherry, dark forrest blackberry pine cones and herbal notes of nutmeg and thyme. The bouquet is somewhat alcoholic, dark plump cherries,fully alivi and could store easily 5years more so until 2024

From magnum. Tired, near-death, staggering along with dried fig, barnyard fermenting kirsch juice, spiking acids. Woeful. Purchased on release and stored by me in impeccable conditions, cork OK, the winemaker can look for excuses but will find none here. What a waste of money.

Perfect cork. Always a gorgeous wine - however, it has peaked and is looking down the other side of the hill. No bricking of course, however, just a tad thinner than the last time. Went down super smooth.
