Showing dark opaque reddish with some brown. The nose is still very expressive .... rich, voluptuous cassis and berry notes. Some greenness, minerality, graphite. Full bodied. Definitely needed a couple of hours to really open up. Still good ripe but not jammy fruit, cassis, soft tannins, smooth. Some greenness. Its got a solid mouthfeel, weight and nice complexity.

Really enjoyable I would say it's at a good peak with structure, and finesse, very Bordeaux like with some. Ice fruit and. No hollow .I'd palate so win win win

Great nose straight out of the bottle. Lots of crushed red fruit and sone on the initial sip with some sour cherry. vanilla and chocolate mid palate, with a bit of cassis. Drank with a nice flat crusted pizza, enhanced the pepperoni. Just starting to come into it's own. Another 3 to 5 years and this will be magnificent.

Drinking beautifully with a good decant. Very well balanced; more jammy in profile than Bordeaux.
