  I agree with the note below.
  Nose of licorice and blackberry.
  Full mouthfeel, dusty tannins that grab, but not terrible. Went really well with rare roast beef. If you like Pirramimma PV, I'd go for the basic one (two for the price of the Ironstone). Maybe it will be killer in a few years, but I'm fine with the basic version.

  Decanted for an hour but probably needed longer. Cherry with a deep red hue. Quite acidic and notes of lilac and violets. Lot of tannins making it feel like a mouthful of sandpaper. A strong robust wine not suitable for the faint hearted.

  Decanted 2 hours. Young but it was very good after 2 hours in the decanter. It will improve with more age. 91+pts at the moment.

  A short Afternoon with some New World-wines (Mövenpick retail store, Hamburg): Another wow-wine, do not know if this one is really from 100% Petit Verdot, enormously spicy, energetic black fruit appearance, integrated ripe tannin, herb garden, tasty finesse, creamy swallowing, showing great depth and concentration with a long finish, for the long run, *(***-?)
