3 hr decant, drinking beautifully. Svelt focused fruit, dark plum, rich but savoury with chinotto flavours coming through. Fine cloudy tannin brings a gentle grip.

Apr 3rd, 2020Took a second night to come together. Deeply black fruited, began a little disjointed with a chocolate velvety start that slipped into an aniseed/star anise finish that tasted a bit tart - 92. Second night and fine cloudy tannin came up with a lovely savoury, mildly spiced long finish. Notably resolved from day one. I didn’t plan on leaving some for the next night but would have missed it otherwise.
