  Good closure on quality cork. Garnet with a surprisingly wide clear rim. Nose of violet, olive and peach. Slightly cooked palate - full black fruit flavour with a nice long soft finish. In its prime now - the absence of tannins would make me think twice about keeping for the long term.

  Lots of black and blue berries everywhere, well spiced with black pepper and allspice. Meaty and dense, still firm and slightly backward. Better from 2026, then good for probably a couple of decades.

  Drinking well now with a 20 minute decant
  Black fruits accompanied by very pronounced tertiary aromas: bacon fat, smokiness / bbq, tar, leather, pepper. An understated rather than powerful wine.
  Tannins are gentle. This wine is in its prime now.
