Lovely, dark burgundy colour. Nose of herby, slightly toasted mixed red fruits; with a hint of blueberry; fresh and leafy but at the same time rich. Tannic and chewy red and black fruit - big mixed bramble fruits. If anything becomes even juicier on the finish. Actually quite complex; nice.

Nice bramble fruits with a slightly confected note on the back of the nose and just a hint of eucalyptus. Lovely bramble fruits also in the mouth, managing to be both refreshing and complex. Spicy - cloves, pepper and perhaps some cinnamon. It has improved just by being still for two or three months.

Definitely not as good as other bottles from this batch. Intense purple and ruby. Nice intense brambles on the nose - fruit and leaves; plus a little dried, even candied, fruit. More intense than usual to taste - almost too much so. Dry yet fruity. Strong tannins. Dried fruit (raisins) and blackberries, maybe also blueberries.

Deep ruby. Good bramble fruits on the nose, possibly some blueberry; intense but in no way OTT. Good, long and juicy - mixed red and black fruits. Easy drinking but also complex and elegant.

Deep burgundy with hints of purple and mahogany. Bramble fruits, perhaps some blueberry, with Christmas spice and then eucalyptus on the back of the nose; nicely balanced. Lively and juicy, yet balanced and mellow. Black fruit taste, especially blackberry, and a little sour cherry. Lovely, not least for the price. Lingering spice (clove and red pepper) finish.
