Flight 3 , wine 1. Medium garnet , quite wide terracotta rim . Again quite herbaceous and funky in character , reminded me of the second wine in the first flight . On the palate there is more cool dark fruits, sous bois and earthiness , again slightly herbaceous with slightly drying tannin . Ok length and balance but a bit gawky and funky overall . Again might just have been this bottle but this wasn’t very impressive . Thought this was the Meyney 86 … wrong again .
