Highly entertaining while lacking the usual Clonakilla race and zip. Nonetheless an xlnt effort from a hot, challenging vintage.

Very tasty. Deep fruit aroma.
Tastes of cherries and pepper. Might put a bottle away for a few years.

Balanced, long and very drinkable, even as young as it is right now. Lush and ripe without being overdone, this is cool, black and very juicy fruit with a firm baclbone and excellent mouthfeel. Great stuff.
