This wine still has several more years left. Smoky aromas of dark fruits - blackberry, sweet black cherry. Has good structure without noticeable tannins. Bright and fresh leading to a vibrant finish.

Showed a slight amount of bricking around the rim but little other sign of aging. Bright burgundy red in colour. Not jammy or viscous in texture. Bright acidity made it seem bordeaux-like. Flavours were mainly plum, cherry and red currant. A little short on aftertaste. Has at least 3-5 more years of life ahead - a testament to the effectiveness of passive cellaring!

Very disappoionting. Not much aroma. Fruit seems to have dissipated leaving a rather sour empty taste. Opened second bottle and found same.
