Tough wine to rate. Smells and flavours I was not recognizing. Not bad but not great. Nice colour, dark dark red, almost black ink like. Nose felt gamey, the fruits came out, faintly, after a few hours of decant. Paired well with bbq lamb. I have another and will let it lie until at least 2025. Feels like it’s just starting to come around. Needs time.

Superb. Still young, but not too aggressive.

This needs at least an hour of decanting. Then it develops into spicey red fruit, etheral nose, quite on the spot at the moment.
