{Cork, 14%} I'll back Ashdene here. Plummy fruits, ripe but a touch baked, mild gritty tannins,medium acid but still on the soft side. This is medium-bodied, dry and savoury, but despute an impression of rich fruits it dries out rather quickly on the tongue. Ok wine, better with food, but not for further cellaring

Deep ruby, clear, tears on glass. Clean damson bouquet, notable alcohol. Initial sweetness but left dry. Slightly lacking acidity making wine feel a bit flabby, maybe over extracted with grainy tannins. Good aftertaste, good but not great, I was hoping for better

10yr old bottle. Still fresh and lively. Needed some time to open up. Bright cherry, currant, iron and anise. Excellent
