2nd visit, solid closure this time around. A lovely bit of spice rack on the palate, takes a while for the nose to open up, but when it does bright and fruity.

A poor screw cap closure spoiled this one, such a shame.
My tasting notes nonetheless, soapy and vinegar.

Not terrible but not great. Great nose but is all over the place on the palette

Disappointing but still drinkable.

Ripe jammy Xmas cake nose! Sharp spicy tannins good length will get better with age as the structure matures. Different but good wine
