Gorgeous wine of deep dark red colour. Dusty. Cassis, sweet marzipan, and tamarillo on the nose, but especially strong liquorice and allspice. The palette is full of ripe red fruit, strawberry, blueberry, rich red plum, with notes of bitter chocolate, and fruit compote. The firm tannins lead to a long lingering finish. An excellent bottle.

Virtual Tasting with Friends #3 (Zoom): Deep ruby, and a slight fading on edges. Strong aromas of lavender and red cherry. Some good acids, tannins still quite bitey, and a lot of alcohol heat. Flavours of red cherry, tar, lavender, fern leaf. A good length
