McEwan's is not new to me, but it's been a little while. I had it at room temperature in a pint glass, with squash ravioli and sliced tomatoes. It had a middling-thick, delicate head and a very dark red colour. The taste was pretty consistent all the way down: sweetish, notes of toastedness and toffee, and a strong alcohol flavour. It's pleasantly heavy, and the smell matches the taste. I thought it played nicely with the squash in the ravioli.
