Had a bit of a funky green nose to start with, not quite what I was expecting up against a McLaren Vale Shiraz which had a bit more age on it. Over time the nose changed, bringing forward more fruit. I agree with some of the comments that personally I’d like to look at it again at 15 years of age. It’s still quite primary, however can see some of the elements beginning to reveal themselves.

Opened the bottle we tasted through Coravin earlier on
Mint, Chocolate, truffle still and a bit earthy and hummus, but the wine is bigger in the palate, with loads of ripe fruits, big length, some sour chocolaty ending... great young wine :)

Opened up nicely a couple of hours after decanting. Concentrated blueberries, spice and violets. Excellent balance, length, intensity and complexity.

I got some red fruits on the palate as well from this bottle. Approachable now but for me it needs more time. Restrained power and well balanced.
