Spectacular from the get-go, supple and lithe. Sandalwood, light maraschino cherry. Drink up, this started to break down after 10-15 mins in glass.

Still medium ruby with quite narrow garnet pink rim . Quite high toned on those nose , just a touch of volatility, and showing quite a lot of the ripeness with dried blackberry and blackcurrant , grafite , tobacco , soy. Quite dense on the palate with more of the ripe , slightly dried fruits , currants , with touches of cedar , sweet tobacco , coffee , undergrowth and grafite . Quite sweet on the palate , with balanced acidity and slightly drying , pinched tannins , but quite decent length . This is probably at peak now but can be enjoyed over the next 5-8 years I would imagine , overall quite successful .

Big and plump, advanced color and nose, but the fruit is jumping.
