Much better than the previous bottle. Good mouth feel, silky. Red fruits. Still a lot of vanilla though and there is a slight bitterness on the finish. Great Monday evening wine though.

Changed a lot since the last bottle (drank a couple of years ago). Amarone style nose, with a bit of cream. Better in the mouth, but it seems to be a touch volatile. Nothing like the warm, rounded wine I remember. Bad bottle ? Probably as other Clarendon reds have aged in a very differant way.
