  Again very enjoyable right now. Cherry fruits, a little Brett, touch funky. Best enjoyed now with food.

  Pleasant surprise. Raspberry, red fruits, touch of white pepper. Fully ready to drink, this is now mellow and easy drinking. A touch of Brett gives a hint of a metallic finish. This went very well with a simple pork and tomato Ragu.Drink now

  Nice surprise. Medium bodied, well balanced, smooth tanins. Still young and a bit tight, but already very enjoyable to drink though. Will probably reach its peak within the next 2 to 3 years. Not decanted.

  The colour is garnet. On the nose seems to be reduced and slightly 'farmyardy' on first opening. On the palate cherry and toasted oak. Good freshness and smooth but slightly bitter tannins.

  Checking back after another year. Lifted florals and ink. Great funk. Made smooth (or held down a bit) by big round tannins. Actually really like this on pnp. Definitely don't decant. A super complement to herbs and spice: black pepper, red pepper, cilantro, North African spice. Gotta agree with CHAMP12OH, a fantastic food wine.
