This is still drinking really well. Deep ruby morphing into garnet. Black cherry, plums, chocolate, spice nose & palate. Full bodied, well integrated tannins, long finish. 15% abv. Syrah, petit syrah, grenache, cab sauv blend. Better now than 3 years ago. Given that improvement and current profile it should be fine for another 5-10 years.

Revisited 20 months on. Still ruby with residual earthy nose. Some primary fruit still apparent, damsons to the fore. Also some earth & caramel. I think that this will be ok until 2030.

Medium garnet. Vanilla, chocolate, black cherry nose. Full bodied. Dark fruits, hint of black pepper & charred wood palate. 14.5% abv. Enjoyable wine, should drink well for the next 2/3 years +
