I had hoped for more nose developments on the nose. But clear garnet,medium expressive nose, some tobacco, licorice and spice to the nose. Tannins are resolved and great balance through the finish.

Medium depth of colour, garnet; now tasting attractively mature, with flavours of fruitcake and some more savoury notes. Probably at its peak now.

This seems about right now, with flavours of a somewhat spirity fruit cake. Quite intense and with good length.

This seems to be at the ideal point of maturity, with concentrated fruit, savoury notes and a suggestion of fruit cake. Most enjoyable.
