Opened up with bright garnet. No brick. Beautifully ripened black fruit with shape. This is a wine of two halves. Lovely bouquet, and silky full palate of black fruit. However the finish disappoints. Drying out on the back palate, and what remains is an awkward puckering of the mouth.

Just glorious Cabernet enjoyed with Matt Mc . Long complex with the berries in great shape. Enjoyed with perfectly cooked Wagyu steaks. Easily beat a rocky BP from 2010 as a food wine.

Opened up with no air with a nose if dark plums and a bit of varnish, which blew off .fruit a little one dimensional and a fraction jaded. Enjoyed with TBone and sliced bbq potato. Past it’s peak, but still an enjoyable wine.
