Inky purple colour. One for the hedonists and the cold of winter. Deep flavours of blackberry, plum, chocolate, mocha, earth. The density and length of the fruit is quite something. This has just been pulled up on the right side of ripeness - although some would contend it was porty. Decadent and delicious. Perhaps complexity is the only thing slightly letting it down. Great and memorable drinking though.

Still big and jammy. Few more years left in it yet.

Another bottle, another great experience. Closest thing to Grange for 1/4 the price. In time.......

Stellar wine. Deep purple, bursting with fruit and quality oak, but still a pup. Will be great in 5-10 years or longer.
