    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;95 points&lt;/b&gt; - Medium dark red. Charry, ripe red and blue berry aromas, meaty, savoury and spicy with development showing. Densely layered tannins with a lush flow, acidity brightening the palate, keeping the wine more medium bodied than full. A mouthful of beautiful wine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tasted on Wed, Jul 10, 2024.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>

    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;93 points&lt;/b&gt; - Medium red. Strawberry, nicely matured. Fine spices. Forrest floor tones. Well balanced for a 15% alcohol wine.
Later: cherry and strawberry. Medium bodied, savoury tones. The wine is in a weird in between stage at the moment. Look at it again in 5 years?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tasted on Tue, Jul 9, 2024.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>

    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;96 points&lt;/b&gt; - Medium deep purple red. Some mint raspberry confectionary aromas, lovely and fruit driven with a good spicy, liquorice backbone. Clean and chaffy and powerful on the palate. There is freshness and vim here. Very good.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tasted on Wed, Feb 17, 2021.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>

    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;96 points&lt;/b&gt; - Deep purple red. Dense and layered nose of red and blue fruits interlaced with hints of spice. Density follows through on the palate, there’s richness and flow there, flesh balanced with invisible structure. A beautiful wine, with everything in harmony.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tasted on Thu, Oct 15, 2020.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>

    <summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;95 points&lt;/b&gt; - Gorgeous nose of florals, ripe red fruit, a touch of heat, juicy. Lush, fruit sweet on the palate, great dimensionality, there is flesh but also excellent structure. It is built, poised, very persistent, peppery. A beautiful glass of wine. Generously flavoured, with a faintly grippy elegance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tasted on Fri, Jan 3, 2020.&lt;/p&gt;</summary>
