Breathed for 2 hours. Dark purple red colour. Dark Aromas of dry oak, pepper & plum. There's a hint of blackberry & dark chocolate. Beautiful tannin's, medium/full bodied red. This wine is drinking extremely well now however i think it still has 10+ more years in it.

Decanted for 3 hours. Dark purple red colour. Dark Aromas of dry oak, pepper & plum. There's a hint of blackberry & dark chocolate. Beautiful grain tannin, full bodied red. This wine is drinking extremely well now however i think it still has 15+ more years in it yet. So happy i still have 4 left to enjoy until i'm in my 60's. If i can hold out that long for one final bottle :D

This is as close to a perfect wine as i have had. Dark purple red colour. Dark Aromas of dry oak, pepper & plum. There's a hint of blackberry & dark chocolate. Beautiful grain tannin, full bodied red. This wine is drinking extremely well now however i think it still has 15+ more years in it yet. So happy i still have 5 left to enjoy until i'm in my 60's. If i can hold out that long for one final bottle :D
Dark Purple colour. Aromas of Dry oak, pepper, horse sweat. Blackberry, cassis and sweet plum. Medium plus body with medium finish. Smooth and sweet fruit. Fine grained tannin, a bit grippy at the back of the tongue. Still very much a fruit forward wine, a velvety finish which is a pleasant change from some recent reds which had a bitter finish. Still many years ahead but you can't go wrong now.
