  Served to accompany beef cheeks. Decanted one hour.
  
  This exceeded my expectations.
  Two things immediately apparent: how young this wine seems; and that it is much sweeter than expected, almost port like.
  Medium ruby colour, browning at edges.
  Ripe fruit on the nose and palate, sweetness, length. Surprisingly young in taste.
  Excellent.

  Beautiful fruit forward lots of flavour. Aged but holding itself together.

  Ruby to garnet in colour, slightly watery rim. Salami and deli meats on the nose with a touch of spice to go with that on the palate. Good finish. Very nice. 93+

  I wasn't impressed. It was like a blown tire. A fruit bomb exploded?
