2020 vintage; pours a still clear ruby; on the nose fruity forward with notes of black cherry and juicy black currants, vanilla and plums in the background, very slight oak notes, blink and you miss them; on the palate smooth and juicy, dark fruit characters with black cherry and blackberries dominating, velvety smooth, tart, dry, textured, light bodied yet full of juiciness, gently spiced oak notes, lingering underlying gentle yet zippy acidity; overall a fantastic new world no/low option
