WS thought this 2009 vintage was one of the 100 best of the year. I have had many bottles. I want to like it but...the tannins are over the top. I think I've bought my last bottle. Here's an update. Opened the last bottle last night and decided to try to tame the tannins by decanting. Voila, within 30 minutes the effect went from harsh to drinkable. That's worth a few adjustments to the right of the decimal.

This is brilliant value for money. Soft and mouth-filling, very approachable with good structure.

Cherry-red pearls lie under lace; violet sky slinks past window glass.
