For me this was over the hill, unexpected but not enough fruit to hit the spot. Unfortunately, the alcohol dominated. Lots of plus points though, raisins, liquorice, clove and cinnamon.

At the end of its drinking window I'd say, but enjoyable. Brick red. Stewed raspberries, balsamic vinegar and terra cotta. Still cohesive, a touch syrupy even. Drying tannin on the finish. Better with food. Happy with my last bottle.

In good condition, but a bit plain and alcohol heat comes through.

Mature flavours but the ripe black fruits are persistant. Probably time to drink up but if anything the maturity had made it better with food.

Charming, as always, although some signs now of overmaturation. Time to drink, but still a treat.
