Mid red. Soft fruited aromatics - red berries and green herbs. Some gentle sweetness on the palate. Complex still, and there is good depth to the fruit, which richened up in the glass and became more juicy. Some tannic dryness on the end. This is very good, if not inspiring, and the fruit is just starting to fade a little. Likely better five years ago. Bought on release.

Clear. Clean. Developing. Black currants, paprika, ripe fruits. A fine balance between the fruit sweetness and the almost volatile acidity in the finish. Firm, with lots of fine tannins. Medium+ length in the finish.

Misc wines at MGs place: Quite developed but also anonymous. Nice acidity and youthful with powerful tannins.

Past its peak, but still drinking. Paired with barbecued salmon and quinoa - all good

Maturing splendidly . Really fine secondary cedary notes and good fruit - excellent but no hurry to drink up
