Boy what a surprise this was.I found it stashed away in the orphan department of the cellar and decided to try it with a roast beef and veggie dinner last night . Dark red almost black in colour with intense aromas of dark fruit and chocolate.Rich and complex, the wine is alive with vibrant sweet fruit and subtle oak with long dusty tannins. A very good wine.

I have one also I have been tempted to try on numerous occasions but have resisted.Do you think it will improve further or drink now?

This wine still has plenty of life in it yet ,but whether it will improve further I don't know.
Cheers
