  93 Jan 2022 👃 black cherry, ripe strawberry, stems. 👅 Smooth, balanced, smoked meat, black pepper, oak, nutmeg, herbal, all over a base of black cherry. Complex. A thinker. Very good sipper, doesn't blow you away though.

  It was a nice wine but it had a short finish and the notes detected on the nose seemed muted on the palate

  Sitting in my air conditioned house watching the outside temperature blow through 43 degrees for the fourth day in a row and truly enjoying this massive Bordeaux blend.
  High intensity everything with strawberry and red cherry aromas.
  Dry, high acidity and tannin, full body and high alcohol.
  Flavours of cherry, raspberry, vanilla and strawberry leading to a lengthy finish. A few years of aging will bring out the tertiaries and add the last half ⭐️. As of now, still outstanding.
