Top Notes For
Andrew Cullimore

Medium ruby wide medium pale ruby rim . Quite reserved at first , with some blackberry and red currant , earthy raspberry notes, touch smoky. On the palate this is more velvety and sweetly fruited , raspberry , strawberry , quite elegant tannins , and really fresh acidity . Slightly chalky , saline tannins . Really fills out on the mid palate , intense , but so well balanced . Long and quite densely fruited on the finish , with some mineral , chalky hints also. This is still really quite young , quite closed , densely fruited. Come back in 5 years perhaps, very promising
