  lovely wine with plenty of life left. light in color, but dark fruit and tertiary notes on palette. black raspberry, tobacco, cocoa. excellent acid backbone, and gripping tannins 14 yeas in. will revisit in a couple years.

  A gift from a friend and a lovely surprise. 91-92
  In great shape with clean cork.
  Quite deep in colour. Nose of forest leaves and sone barnyard but great fruit still. Big opening and quite a decent length finish, lots of fruit still, good acidity and a slight sappy finish, possibly some metallic notes after some air that turns to bitterness on that sappy finish. Good stuff
  Serve chilled - got sone years left but no upside I’d imagine
  Delicious - watch out the bottle will go quickly
  13.3% ABV
  
  A number of hours on this has developed. The barnyard elements have gone - it’s got depth and still has a dry bitter lifted edge. Plenty of fruit and years left in tank.

  Holding its own - better than last bottle. Very pleasurable, nose a little off putting, with notes of concentrated plum and blackberry.

  Pleasurable again. Been a year since we had this wine. Tart, with notes of plum, raspberry and oak. A little thin maybe - drink up!

  Wild nose on opening - well beyond typical Cameron funk. Wet earth, barnyard, and wildflowers... loved it. After a half hour or so, much more subdued but still compelling. Less freaky on the palate, balanced, with layers of dark fruit and just enough acidity. My last bottle, and probably just as well - this had a hint of decline, so I'd say drink up.
