Wine is still holding a good red hue in the glass, but browning on the edges, the nose is starting to fade and shows old leather, cedar and some nice savoury plum characters. The palate has wonderful aged flavours of cigar box, rich stewed black currant and subtle spice. There is an excellent mouth feel and soft well rounded tannins that lead to a savoury finish with good length. This is a great aged wine, from an equally great vintage, however i would suggest to drink over the next year or two before it becomes a little one dimensional.
