blue fruits, cigar box and some mint on the nose, stunning rich fruit, super fine powdery tannins, some spice leading into balanced drying oak - definately on the rich side - quite Majella like - very enjoyable - 4 fingers and plenty of time to my mind although drinking superbly now

Massive mint on opening. Nose of black fruits. 2 hours to start opening up. Cigar box, mint, black fruits. Still has life. Will go another 5.

Agree with previous review. Still primary fruit and has at least 5 years

Still some primary fruit but developing very nicely and easy 5+ years in this (probably more).

Very rich & full nose. Morello cherries and Demerara and blackcurrant. Fruity, appealing but not super refined.
Taste: big and boozy but at present somewhat homogenous. Got quite a long life ahead of it and it should improve markedly, up to 90 plus.
