Friday, December 25, 2015 - Opened about half an hour in advance. Medium red/brick colour; elegant, slightly perfumed nose; rather restrained on the palate, with blackcurrant fruit, good balance, and some dusty, smoky tannin on the finish. This seems rather subdued compared to earlier bottles, with the tannin hiding the fruit to some extent. Perhaps we should have given it more air and more time at the outset. Nevertheless, a classy wine by any standard.
