Medium red; toasty oak on the nose; moderately rich palate, not highly concentrated but with real flavour, and some grip.
For some reason I got into my head that this was destined for early drinking. It’s not a long keeper, but at 5 years old it could still do with some time to soften and fatten.
Actualy it seems this wine went nowhere. It was always brawn rather than fruit intensity. Today it is just softer, starting to fade. 78 points
