  Fresh and uplifting if a touch simplistic.
  
  Good tannins, pepper and a hint of leather. Drinkable.

  Opened for a Wine Society 2011 vs 2015 event. Decanted 2 hours. Ripe and round yet not overtly fruity despite tasting quite acidic. Not very tannic. Pleasant mouth feel. Well made but felt a little thin, hints of sourness, as if previous richness had dissipated. CT drink window ending 2045 would seem highly optimistic based on this bottle.

  Light drinkable claret that will not improve further. Will be happy to drink all twelve bottle over the coming months.

  Nose of black cherry fruit, black currants, cigar box, and earth with a subtle but penetrating perfume, same on the palate, medium/big body, very tasty, and a long, flavorful finish.

  Nose of red cherry, touch of saddle leather and cigar box, medium body, at it's best now, tasty, drink the next 7 years, rich fruit, touch simple, long finish.
