First time tasted after visiting the very impressive vineyard some years ago - lovely restrained wine with tobacco & cedar on the nose and impressive dark fruit on the palate - very impressed!

We opened this because we read a few reviews that it's prime was 2018. I disagree. Decanted a couple of hours and it was wonderful. Glad we still have one left.
