  Smooth and fruity with a rich ruby plum.

  Deep ruby in the glass. Aromatic, like all Clarendon bottlings. Big, ripe fruit in the form of plum, raspberry, black cherry and blueberry. Spices in the back, spices in the front, most of them coming from the oak. Developed, but firm tannins, medium acidity. Solid complexity, medium length. Good on its own, but better paired with meats like lamb or pork. Drink in the next year or two.

  Still going strong on day 2. Much better than last bottle. Strong black cherry and anise flavors, some spice box and a very peppery bite and a bit of acid. Clarendon wines are always powerful and this is no exception.

  Yes, waited too long on this one. Drinking window guidance on CT is correct. Still a good wine with deep raspberry and blackberry flavors with fading structure, weak tannins, some chocolate and a surprising amount of acidity. Overall, though, the hallmarks of a wine well past its prime. Hate when that happens.
