Revisited almost three years on. Still deep ruby but morphing into garnet. Blackcurrant, liquorice, spice nose. Little bit of tertiary (cedar) creeping in on the palate, but still plenty of black fruits. Drinking very well and I still believe that this will be fine for another 10 years.

First bottle. Decanted 4 hours. Dark fruit,good concentration but generally a primary wine with little secondary development at this point. Good but not great. Probably needs time. A-?

Nice wine and in a great spot now. Needed some air to get going, but delicious stewed blue fruit

Big, fruity, with raspberry pie, black currant, peppermint. Needs an hour of air or so. Excellent!

Stunning. Perfect age for me. Tannin integrated and the wine is just so bright and fresh. Gorgeous fruit and starting to show tertiary notes
