A bit reticent on bouquet. Inky red/purple color. Tastes of earth, with a core of dark fruit, maybe a touch of licorice. Well crafted, though no ‘wow’.

Good color, body, likely to last another 2 to 3 years but not going to improve. Drinks like it always does - nice fruit throughout but not over the top, dry, delicious!

Similar to my experience two years ago, with some slight development. Tannins and acids still need time to fully integrate. Much better with food than without. Seems to need more time.

Very dark black-red, 6.5
Primary fruit, ripe dark fruit, sweet cask notes
Harmonious palate, m+T, h-A, hB, dry, finely grained tannins, very ripe sweet dark fruit and cask notes, rather one dimensional.
I’d wait five years for more complexity. Now it’s boring.

Certainly nothing special given the pedigree and price point.
