”  We are boycotting the corporately anodyne new name. Really, what snorey-dull person did that?

W66, brought by RLC. Nose had sweetness. Palate rich, soft, fully sweet, with mid-palate heat.

Bottled by Mayor Sworder. Mature, red colour - mid-maturity. Wonderful nose, full and vibrant. Delightful palate, lots of fruit up front and with supportive but soft tannins. Very spicy core to the mid-palate - really still quite lively. Long finish, drinking really beautifully. 92/100.
