Medium bodied but packs a punch. Raspberry jam, maple bacon, Galaxy (in the US, Dove) chocolate bar. Good grip. Sustains well.

Tasty but not sure worth the $80 price. Love James Suckling rating but best ever seems a stretch.

Light-bodied, earthy and dry. A lot of tannins.

It is ok but definitely not at full price. I bought at $50 and even then this is a pass. Nothing overly special or exciting.

Great potential. Currently, elegant but subdued, this needs to sleep for another five years at least. This can be enjoyed now but for sure it will get better if you are patient and wait a while. Christmas spices, smoke and coffee. Rating reflects current taste, I guess an additional .3 or . 4 will be added in later years.
