Gifted from a co-worker, open and half consumed when received. I'm fortunate he doesn't particularly like ports. Nice bottle, look forward to receiving my pending purchased bottles. No formal notes.

From Coravin. Plummy, sweet spices, slightly herbaceous notes, a little walnut and almond skin on the nose. With time in the glass it starts to show cedar, a little toffee apple & coffee. In the mouth it's sweet but with sufficient acidity to keep things fresh, the alcohol is a little pointy but not obtrusively so and the tannins are grippy, drying and grainy but more in support of the fruit than dominating it, the sweet spice tends to the savoury. Obviously still young but okay.

More approachable than I expected. Mulberry, hot stone
And violet. Firm tannins balanced by medium + to high acidity. Drank over two nights.

Agree with CHATTERS review below mine. Would hold rather than opening now. Seems a little simple and closed at the moment.

Intensité déboussolante. Sans doute beaucoup trop jeune.
