Magnum. Opened 19.00, decanted at 09.00 for 4 hours before being returned to the bottle. Mature and quite dark red in colour, 70% opaque. Restrained on the nose showing a little lovely fruit. Mature and delicious on the palate, a delightful texture, full of fruit giving a wonderful mouthful of fruit and with surprisingly strong tannins. Lingering red pepper aftertaste and a long redcurrant finish. Fabulous. 95/100. Tasted 28-Dec-23.
