This is in a perfect place - beautiful pure black fruit, subtle tannin, long finish with a hint of spice and clove. Wow, this has shown amazing improvement from earlier bottles even though it is not made for the long haul.

Pretty much like the previous bottle. Still drinking ok but no discernible development in complexity. Sweet stewed black fruit. Liquorice. Lots of alcohol. Stalky.

This was a big step up from the last bottle. Rich, warm mouth filling, cloves and a long spicy finish. Delicious.

Quite a decent south african with a hint of cloves alongside the dark fruit.

Nothing much there. Some fruit mixed with alcohol and element of funk. Not to my likeing but drinkable.
