    April 18, 2024 - Best one yet, rich, balanced and has gained some lovely secondary notes of tobacco, leather. Really liked it.

    January 16, 2024 - 1hr decant. Fantastic aroma on the nose. Great wine and balance. I’m sure this could lay down for another several years. Enjoyed by everyone at dinner.

    January 13, 2024 - Coravin. Very good but also very young, needs a looong decant. Big and bold with lots of oak. Cab dominat on the nose and shiraz in the taste. Next bottle in 2034? 92 p.

    January 6, 2024 - Deep ruby morphing into garnet.
    This is still drinking really well and is better now than in 2021.
    Still plenty of primary aromas/flavours present.
    Damsons, plums, blackberries with figs/prunes.
    Really excellent wine.I’m not sure if it will improve further or if it’s at its peak. Must have another 5-10 years drinking.
