  4.5 years since my last bottle of this and it’s still very youthful. As good as I rembember it to be. Will hold off another few years before another. This is a wonderful wine at the price point and poised for future improvement

  Fairly tight on opening but after an hour I’d air this began to sing. Tea leaves, tobacco and red fruits with a great length and balance. Lovely, with the best yet to come

  Quite a bit further advanced than i was expecting. It was very nice, but i wouldn't have blinked if someone had told me this was 15 years old, not 5.
  Nutty, honeyed oxidative notes with really nice pure pear and lemon behind them. Good texture and nice mouthfeel.
