    August 7, 2019 - SLDS August 2019: Blind. Pepper, liquorice and spice with smoky oak and tobacco. The oak sits up from on the palate as well, with rich, sweet black fruits showing with heavy density on the palate. Put together in a specific style, but a bit too full on for me.

    August 28, 2018 - Deep purple in colour. On the nose, it is developing with medium (+) intensity of redcurrants, blackberries, plums, pepper. The wine is dry, full body, medium (+) acidity, medium (+) tannins, high alcohol, medium (+) flavour intensity of blackberries, plums, chocolate, earthy, spices. Finish is medium (+). Wine is good, silky smooth and elegant.
