  Deep ruby.
  Plums, damson, herb nose with some spice/liquorice.
  Dark fruits and liquorice palate, maybe some figs.
  Full bodied, well balanced wine, long finish.
  50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% petit Verdot.
  This wine is still drinking really well and I believe is a little better than in October 2020.
  I would still give this 5-10 years.
  Outstanding wine.

  Great wine, no decant needed, black fruit, cherries, boysenberries, plums.. palate is very smooth and tannins are fully integrated, finish is medium. At the peak

  This is a fantastic wine. Ultra ripe blackberries and old leather on the nose. Some spice and maybe menthol. Silky mouthfeel with lots of woodiness and ripe plum. Easy drinking on opening, but continued to improve for an hour before it started to drop off. I absolutely loved this wine. I wish I had a case but there’s only one more. A perfect wine considering the price.

  Quick note. Just entering the crescendo of its life. Well into tertiary, much more soft and delicate than I was expecting. Best on its own or with light charcuterie. A few years left to peak, but not long now.
