December 30, 2016 - Medium red colour with browning on the edges. Nose still fairly youthful, berries and spice. Nicely integrated palate, spicy with lengthy vanilla-like finish.

June 30, 2016 - It's continued to transform in the bottle. Spectacular nose of coffee, cedar, nutmeg, blackberry and a hint of moss. Red and black berries, vanilla, coffee and pepper on the palate. A long vanilla and spice finish. Simply wonderful!
