Shows amazing drive and fucus. Intense, yet chiseled, with tightly knit minerality encasing a core of vibrant dark fruit. It also sports perfect balance. Simply a beautiful wine with great cellar potential.

An outstanding wine. Black cherries and crème de cassis. Full-bodied with a fabulous, lingering finish.

Ever so clearly mountain fruit. Blueberry, baking spice and loads of wet rock

Totally closed off despite a long decant. Pretty underwhelming and not at all like the last one so perhaps an off bottle.
