  Consistent through the years, a good value, enjoyed while having cheese and appetizers before TG. Could go years

  Corked I think. Nothing like previous bottles

  Excellent, full bodied. Sangiovese and some Merlot.

  Superb ! No light passes through the wine but this is not the black wine of Cahors ;) Full of fruit and other flavours (ok: cigar box, liquorice, chocolate, vanilla , and orange liqueur )
  It seems to benefit from the respect of decanting 5 or 10 minutes before the first attempt at appreciation so that it may then be seen to develop further .

  Joel's Tuscan Lunch (The wilds of Kent): Decanted in advance. I'd very much enjoyed the 2018 of this so was looking forward to try this.
  Nose gives soft ripe plum, florals, some balsamic and tomato - all very moreish sapid.
  Really deep rich on the attack and mid palate, dark plum but fresh and sapid, present but powdery tannins. Perhaps the finish a little light but it had set high expectations. Good value and keen to try more
