Nice, pretty much as before, but softer all around, no surprise with 4 years gone by. Fruit moved to a bit not edgy, no pepper, and subdude tannnin. But still has character.

Medium red, slightly acidic, not as vibrant or intense as I hoped, I have drunk a lot of Julienas having stayed there a few times but it is usually fresher tasting. I have some more recent years which i hope taste more alive! Its not bad, and I get more selective as I get older, but difficult to rate above 87.

Slightly bitter, and difficult to taste much fruit. This did not have the vibrancy that I would expect from Julienas.

A little sharp initially but as it opened up it became much smoother.
