Good colour with just the hint of brick. Suttle well balanced nose with great complexity, certainly secondary nuisances coming to the fore. Hints of berry, licorice & cedar. Palate is velvety smooth with great texture and verve, a long lingering finish. Great wine at peak but no hurry.

Very deep dark red. Great blk berries & blk olive complexities on the nose, excellent perfume, has a slight eucalyptus nuisance. Big soft round blk berries on palate, fleshy, luscious & moreish. An absolute joy to drink, superb!

Very dark, slightly brown cast at edge. Black berry, baked plum, sage, liqueur and oak nose. Medium body, dried berry, black olive, smoke and oak palate. Tannin was very drying right out of the bottle but softened with an hour in decanter.
