December 18, 2022 - Root Day - Another “found in the cellar wine” with Christmas roast dinner. Decanted off a couple of tablespoons of fine sediment. Explosive nose of graphite, cedar, red fruit, savoury herbs and red flowers. On the palate it’s medium bodied with everything on the nose also on the palate. The only knock is the finish is just medium in length.

October 21, 2022 - Fruit Day - a ‘found in the cellar’ wine. Decanted off about a tablespoon of light sediment. Opaque dark garnet core out to a garnet edge - little development showing. Nose is cedar, wet loam, light funk, leather, red flowers, plum, and crushed dried leaves. An enjoyable and inviting nose but little in the way of complexity. On the palate the ripe tannins are smooth on the tongue with balancing acidity (medium). The flavours are plum, blackberry, black cherry, leather, spice (lots of it), and sweet cooking herbs. The finish is both red and black fruit along with that huge spice. A bit of a powerhouse all around only lacking some finesse to really make it pop. Well done and still extremely youthful. It’ll easily go another 5 years and may develop that complexity that will take it over the top.
