M&S 35th Anniversary (McCarthy & Schiering): Beautiful wine. Good brick-red color, consistent across the meniscus. On opening, had tannins & structure with very little aroma. After 45 minutes in the decanter opened beautifully. Pretty red fruit with a touch of spiciness. Backed by good but mature structure which provided character and depth of flavors. Lovely old-school California Cabernet. (Do not be put off by initial lack of bouquet...give it time!)
