Cherry,dried and black; scribbles of graphite in a tinder box. Campfire smoke, and dark tobaccos brood in clusters of black currant. Glints of plum skin and baked raspberries. Cinnamon and cedar shavings. Dried cherry and black berries persist into the palate, with green peppercorns and dried violets dusted in graphite. Smoke snakes around black bread with currants, fig and black raisins. A phenomenal fall treat. That’ll do the trick!

Nano hazelnut chocolate on coffee rye, blackened sponge cake, well done steak, black sesame, lavender and baked blackberry. Well knit.
Graphite glimmers on dark chocolate and cedar-oak slivers, smoky tobacco leaf, and tea. Immersive.

Dark and beguiling. Slightly wild. Touch of spice. Plenty of dark fruit. Tanins now attractively supple. Very tasty. Great for right now.

Lovely bottle bouquet. Resolved. Not a lot of fruit. V. astringent. Subtle angular red fruit.

2010. Very dry tannins, assertive, plum, black cherry, mildly smoky. More aggressive than elegant. #FancyWine

It's classic. Berries, leather, pencil shavings, wet earth. Drink me now or later.
