One hour decant. Deep ruby-purple colour. Nose of violet, clove, cola and liquorice. Flavours of dried cherry, tar, liquorice, espresso, dark chocolate and cocoa. Fully integrated tannins. Drinking well right now and for another half decade or so.

Medium bodied with Layers of plum, chocolate and plenty of vanillin oak. Soft and chalky tannins. Nice wine but lacks the extra character and finesse of the block 6.

Drinking very well out of bottle but deserves a decent decant

Licorice, blackcurrant and cherry. Syrupy on the palate, with a large amount of fruit - decent length though.
