Wonderfully structured with a powerful backbone paired with classic fruit characteristics and fresh acidity, finishing with a herbaceous twist. This will go daily 20 years.

Just awesome! Black currant, black cherry, plum, cranberry, rose petal and sweet tobacco. M acid, body. M/m+ round silky tannin. Great structure. Not overly oaked. Fruit lingers 1 minute plus. Lives up to the reputation of a classic wine.

Wine of the night.
Gravelly meadow nose, with huge sweet cherries and cinnamon.
Plush immature tannins greet the palette. Fruit-forward with a perfect acidic balance. Finishes with pomegranate and rich dark fruit. This has a huge amount of longevity ahead of it!
