1hr decant. Fantastic aroma on the nose. Great wine and balance. I’m sure this could lay down for another several years. Enjoyed by everyone at dinner.

Coravin. Very good but also very young, needs a looong decant. Big and bold with lots of oak. Cab dominat on the nose and shiraz in the taste. Next bottle in 2034? 92 p.

Deep ruby morphing into garnet. This is still drinking really well and is better now than in 2021. Still plenty of primary aromas/flavours present. Damsons, plums, blackberries with figs/prunes. Really excellent wine.I’m not sure if it will improve further or if it’s at its peak. Must have another 5-10 years drinking.

Best one yet, rich, balanced and has gained some lovely secondary notes of tobacco, leather. Really liked it.
