May 24, 2008 - Fairly flat on first opening, but revealed some really interesting leathery, smokey undertones as it had time to breathe. May well develop more with further ageing.

April 2, 2008 - Well rounded dark berry fruit, strong tanins and a leathery finish. Very good. Will probably benefit from keeping a little while longer too.
