    June 1, 2014 - Smelling the wine it was a 94p wine, with the taste it got down to 85. So I it put it at 88p :-) A bit past it´s peak. It was fantastic 3 years ago.
    It smells like black currant (cassis), forest floor, mushroom, coffee, smokey bacon, black pepper, alcohol/hot, barnyard and horsey. It tastes like black currant (cassis), barnyard, horsey, black pepper, coffee, alcohol/hot and forest floor.
    The body is medium/full. The wine finishes long. The wine has high acidity.

    April 19, 2014 - Deep red color. Leather, coffee, smoke and a hint of dark fruit. Powerful and with good length. Probably peaking now. Fruit, acid and tannins in good balance. Drink now

    June 6, 2012 - Deep red color. Dark berries, smoke, leather and some meaty tones. Good structure and smooth powerful tannins. Long finish. A great wine for a low price. Have gained a lot since I bought it.
