Nose was brilliant upon opening. Bursting with dark plum and blackberry. Nice mouth feel but remaining acidity pushes through the palate. Wine quickly oxidised on air and did not last long in the glass. Drink asap.

Dark inky black with crimson hue, nose of black cherry, blackberry, dark chocolate and hints of spice. On palate it is smooth and pleasant drinking in a medium bodied frame, fruits till holding well with cherries,berries fruits, blackcurrant and coffee notes. Its bright acidity lead to a medium+ finish and still chewy tannins. Drinking well now and unlikely to improve.

Super fruit driven despite the age. Must have been a beast in its youth. Nice evolution, but still very forward.

Licorice, some spice and rhubarb on the nose. Palate is intense and bold across the length but it is rather one dimensional.
