June 21, 2023 - Good black fruit intensity. Mid weight, grippy tannins and good acidity. Some noticeable oak, leather and forest floor. As it opened up this showed inceeasing weight and depth. Medium plus finish, some complexity. Beginning to drink but still young. Will be better in 10 years.

March 25, 2023 - 25032023 - blackcurrant, cassis, freshly tanned leather, prominent jasmine flower and tobacco leaves.
Palate; medium bold & medium acidity. Sticky tannins with rather austere finish. However it is clean at the back palate. Plenty of depth & layers with the still youthful tannins providing much bite & structure. Medium length finish with lots of black fruit, dark spices & oak. -

November 4, 2022 - Very nice Bordeaux blend. Ready to drink now with a short decant (30 mins - 1 hour).
