Identical colour and depth to Georgia’s, but here the similarity ceases. Herbaceous aroma, more pronounced than usual for Emily’s. Fruit well balanced with high acid and tannins. Possibly a little more forward than previous releases but a few years cellaring is still desirable. Generally available at cellar door only.

Medium colour. Sandalwood/ cedar/ redcurrant aromas with some meaty/ herb garden notes. Sweet redcurrant/ meaty flavours with some silage notes, fine bone dry lacy tannins. Finishes minerally. Plenty of flavour length. Still holding up but drink soon. Now-2012. 86 points.

Medium colour. Fresh mushroom, red cherry, leather aromas. Medium bodied and surprisingly fruit-sweeted with red cherry, chinotto, leather flavours and plentiful fine chocolaty tannins. Finishes firm and long. Now - 91 points

Medium crimson. Intense cola/ chinotto, almost vermouth aromatics with some sage notes. Well concentrated salted liquorice, cola vermouth flavours, fine loose knit slinky textures and underlying mineral notes. Finishes long and sweet. Holding up pretty well. Alc not known. 91 points Now
