April 21, 2013 - Needed a couple of hours to really open up. Good but not particularly exciting.

December 17, 2012 - Five hour decant. Delicate aromas on the pour, becoming tarry as it opened up. A little creamy vanilla note in there too. Bright and fresh with a sweet and sour cherry tart flavour. Nice grip from the toasty tannins, the dark tarry note lingers on the finish.

October 14, 2012 - subtle fruit flavours not very intense but has a nice hit of distinct liquorice on the palate.
