Decant: 38 hours - At 38 hours the wine is starting to sing. It has finally shown that it has changed and improved. Tones of vanilla are coming through on the nose along with the huge scents of blackcurrants. The overwhelming acidity has gone, the tannins are there but are smooth and ripe. Fruit is dominant and is wonderful, ripe and sweet. Perhaps a touch jammy - but I like that. Long, long length. Delicious, finally showing as a very good wine. 93 points
