Cherry red core with gradual bricking towards the rim. Meaty, truffley nose. Very smooth palate with a hint of hung game and flowery notes. No great concentration but very fine. Lovely wine. Should last a bit but this is at, or just past, its peak. Day two: this has filled out and everything's turned up a notch. Seems right in its sweet spot for me.

Sadly my last bottle. Perfect for lasagna; needs the cheese and meat with acid if the sauce.

Bit past age here with some slight bitter tannins hanging in but less depth than earlier.

Silky smooth. Cherry on the palate. Some bacon fat on the finish. A bit one-note and subtle.
