Pop and decant and pour.
Still deeply coloured with a ruby rim.
Nose still has the blueberries but there’s some plum showing.
Palate is super-smooth with lush fruit, a little blueberry at first and a brief flash of redcurrant before the poached plum tones start to move in.
Moves seamlessly to the chocolate - tinged finish with a little coarse orange marmalade, late.
Just about fully ready, but will happily last a decade.
A pleasure to drink. And, again, six quid! I own no better value wine than this.
