January 28, 2024 - Hmm, given the recent enthusiastic reviews, I was a bit disappointed.
In the nose this was classic with poached fruit, but not exuberant. In the mouth I found the slightly bitter and still coarse tannins dominated over fruit.
Overall decent, but not more. Maybe some bottle variation? -

December 3, 2023 - OMG - this is class. Forgive men as first bottle of 6 and i don't usually drink at this price point but it's velvet with such nuanced flavours and a wonderful accompaniment to a venison stew. I will drink happily over next 2 years or so

January 15, 2023 - Clear, red colour. Cherry, raspberry on nose. Dusty tannins. Raspberry and cherries. Slightly tight but opened after an hour or so. Possibly needs more time to fully express itself.
