  Excellent bottle. Blind tasters guessed significantly older vintage (2002) due to bricking but is drinking well. Would drink within the next 5 years.

  nose - slightly stinky/feral
  mouth - round, fleshy, almost reminiscent of a pomerol but lighter on the tannins. eminently quaffable in a dangerous fashion in the same way a spiked punch might be. Has a juice box sort of appeal but with some funk to keep it interesting for mature audiences. had this many times now but continues to be an eye opener

  Dark and concentrated ruby color, pleasant nose of hay and barn. Fresh and friendly, yummy and vigorous drinkabilty. Keeps the hand reaching for more.
