The bottle that I/we least preferred in a mini vertical of four vintages. Initially it appeared quite heady and on the verge of oxidation. Thankfully fortune turned with time/air and it turned the corner and notes of freshly cut flower and glossy red cherry emerged. I would be inclined to say that this bottle would probably have been better if decanted based on the experience. Also maybe it wasn't a perfect bottle. Looking forward to revisit this.

Has some Hoisin and beef stock notes along with sarsaparilla root, coffee and dark fruits. It is full, sweet and textured with good intensity and plenty of spice.

Tea coloured and a little advanced for its vintage. But drinking beautifully with a touch medicinal finish.

A little stewed. First of this wine I've had and can't believe it's a great bottle. Def worth it for me to find another and try a second time.
