henrygjeffreys Likes this wine:
May 1, 2020 - Deep red purple colour, pale rim
Pungently herbal nose , fennel, liquorice, plums,
Lovely aromatic quality, spicy , liquorice coming through strongly, leather , and dark chocolate, powerful but not overpowering. Maturing nicely. Proper vintage character here. Great quality for the price. Will be even better in 5 years time.
