Lovely nose of cassis, black currants, pepper, mint, and a whiff of toasty vainillin. Silky and gracious on the palate with enough nerve to highlight its amplitude. Drying finish that makes you go for another sip. Fresh and full of life at 10 years of age.

Great nose and well balanced on palate. Finish was a little disappointing. Got a bit sour after about 15 seconds.

Dark, inky purple. Closed on the nose. Blackcurrant, prunes, touch oak, fine tannins. Long finish. Probably at peak.

Nice deep purple, open nose of black berries, perfect balance and medium to full body, tannins well resolved. Good long finish, drinking perfectly.
