Love the backbone of earthy minerality this vintage shows. Dusty/gravelly notes throughout, framed by licorice and leathery fruit and garrigue. Always love these wines!

2012 (which is their current release in 2019!). Bramble berries, licorice, pepper, gravel, garrigue, cinnamon. Bright, ripe strawberry and blackberry with spice and medium minus acidity and slightly course medium tannin on the palate. Holds the alcohol so well; hard to believe this is 15%. Ripe, but still retaining structure and spice. Just about the perfect wine with slow cooked lamb shank.
