Wednesday, September 6, 2023 - 2/2, vg cork, decanted 1/2 hr. Purchased November 2002, £18, STWC.
Deep garnet core, pale garnet rim. Nose is still relatively youthful with plum and black cherry fruit, notes of tea, soil and a touch of exotic spice. Medium bodied, plum fruit, middleweight and supple on the mid-palate with black tea and exotic spice again, quite cool fruited though with a touch of gloss, vibrant acids, good length slightly grainy finish. This was very enjoyable though - I would say now fully mature but no need to hurry to drink well stored bottles.
