  Good. 91 CS, 9 Syrah. I almost think the syrah is from the rocks as there is a hint of funk in the wine. Consistent over two days.

  Not rating at this point - my last two bottles were either flawed or just past drinking point - surprising since the last bottle was quite good a year ago. Strong brett on opening, and a vinegar like bite, (not just tannins). I'm thinking these must have been exposed to excessive heat at some point.

  Really drinking well with a long decant. Even better on day two. Slight sense of Brett on initial open - but settles nicely in an hour or so in the decanter. Lovely on day two!

  Drinking great, but give it ~2 hrs to breathe.
