February 26, 2023 - Dense, inky, red blood colour. Attractive nose of musk, pencil and a bit of leather. Rounded mouthfeel - flavours of musk, menthol, cranberry and graphite. Medium to long finish. Drinking really well. Beautiful bottle.

November 7, 2021 - Dark ox-blood in color, full bodied.
Meaty nose. Iodine. Lots of wet wool and some stones
Dry, tannin. Some vegetative notes. Grippy. Nice but not as nice as the last bottle.

November 3, 2020 - Opens up well after a couple of hours in the bottle, typical cabernet notes of dark berry, cassis, cedar and pencil lead on the nose, balanced, with restrained weightiness and smooth mouthfeel, tense tannin, dark flavors of berry, mint, tobacco, gravel and anise, Margaux vibes, pleasant match with rib-eye steak, lots of cellar potential
