Thursday, May 13, 2021 - Colour: Garnet
Aroma: wild strawberries, candied cherry, caramel, liquorice, eucalyptus, pinch of black pepper, hint of leather, dry forest floor
Taste: after decant tannins were quite sharp. Within 30 mins the wine opened up and balanced this, with fruit emerging. Quite sweet, displaying much of the character of the aroma. Perhaps a tad candied, but incredibly pleasant and good accompaniment to roast beef. Would have been excellent with venison or duck as well. Needed time in decanter for heat of alcohol to soften too. Enjoyably rich and complex. Finish slightly short, stopping this from being outstanding.
Drink now.
