Very good quality, can drink now but potential for ageing.
I tried this based on a colleague recommendation. I can see why he is such a fan. Lots of body, plenty of length, smooth, with ripe tannins. An absolute steal at the moment. If you like to age wines (and I do), this would be a candidate. Otherwise, consider matching this with a weighty and savoury dinner.
