  Drank the last of my 6 pack last night. It still had a very good nose, and colour was crimson with no brown tones. The flavour was still very full but the wine was a little short. Tannins beautifully integrated and there was some pepper.
  The wine is still fully intact but probably starting the downward path.

  Excellent drinking even if a little after its best range. Full bodied and went well with eye fillet.

  Great ageing and a mellow but deep taste to complement roast beef

  First glass via Coravin from an unopened bottle. What Graeme said was pretty much spot on for me. It’s nice without reaching any serious heights. Has your typical ‘aged wine, no real character’ profile. Wouldn’t knock back a glass, but I wouldn’t shell out for a bottle either.
