Surprisingly, bright with red fruits, anise, wild herbs on the nose. Initial fruit forward, quickly melds into new leather, stewed red/black fruit with a chewiness. Dry, medium plus alcohol, medium plus bodied, silky tannins, medium acidity. Nice finish. It can age longer, but probably won't increase in enjoyability. For the price point, it's a 👍 but not overwhelming so.

Ruby core with quite wide garnet , terracotta rim . Quite deep and reserved at first , floral , red berry , strawberry, raspberry , red cherry , very fruit forward . On the palate this is also very primary , with lots of sweet strawberry , raspberry and cherry . Really fruit driven , so young . Bright acidity , quite strict tannin frame . This is a mineral saline note after a while , lots more complexity hidden underneath all plushness of the fruit . Perfectly balanced and proportioned with a long finish . Really promising and the finest of all the wines on this night but you will need to wait for the real fireworks to begin , a wine for the future . Wait 10 years and will probably show well a further 15 -20. — 17 days ago

Excellent attack with an earthy and red fruit flavor and nose, but the finish was short and astringent. — 16 days ago

This is exceptional. Lemon oil and greenery. Integrated and slightly smoky. An oiliness in the palate, with a sweetness and intensity. Great freshness but a gorgeous complex mid palate. Great — 19 days ago
