Last bottle. Fully mature, tons of cherry. Doesn't need to breath much, can be served immediately, but holds on nicely for an hour without fading. Good performance, meets expectations.

Interesting one this - was expecting something leathery and mature but actually on night one it was hot and spicy and, whilst tasty, lacked freshness. After the second half of the bottle spent 24 hours in the fridge the wine much improved, with lovely black cherry and a lot more lift.

Sundried cherry, herb, leather and floral nose. Lovely taut savoury sweet/sharp ripeness, with no lack of fruit, flavour, leathery complexity or fine distinction. This is a scrumptious wine for the price. Loosens up on day 2 and reveals more secondary notes. 90 points
