May 19, 2015 - Drank over two days. Slightly candied, dark fruit on day one, but good. Much better on day two. Dark and sultry with some smoky leather and currant.

December 17, 2010 - At home. This is really put of synch. Not especially young-looking, oak and earth dominate the nose rather than fruit. Palate is almost nondescript and is overly oaky and bitter especially in the finish. One of the worst wines I've had from Andrew Murray. 5-9-10-4: 78/100.
