Over three years since I opened up the first bottle. Still young-ish but much easier to drink after a quick decant of half an hour. All the typical scents and taste of C9DP. Very balanced. Clearly from a warm climate but retaining ample freshness. Like it a lot. Hope I can keep my hands off it in the coming years to check in on the remaining bottles every couple of years — 2 months ago

Unfortunately my bottle was compromised and some air entered. But the vinegar at the top quickly came off revealing an intense powerful wine although with some balsamic notes. Great with our lamb souvlaki. — 10 months ago

Easy and accessible. Nice and long sweet tannin and fruity finish.
