Very stylish and shapely, presenting a lightly smoky expression of sweet berries, fresh vanilla/dark chocolate oak and undertones of dried herbs backed by very faint suggestions of mint and meatiness. Underpinned by firm, loose-knit dusty tannins, it’s long and harmonious, with brightly lit flavours culminating in a bittersweet finish. Tightly focused and finely balanced: a cellar style.
Simply a beautiful wine, exuding elegance and regional style. Scented with fresh cassis, mulberries and dark cherries backed by nuances of blackberries, tight-knit chocolate/cedary oak, briar and dark olives, it’s long and silky, supple and fine-grained. Its intense, pristine and almost sour-edged fruit moves seamlessly down the surprisingly firm palate, finishing with wonderful brightness and length. Certain to age gracefully.
Charmingly gentle, smooth and supple, with a delicate, dusty bouquet of light floral notes, sweet black and red berries and restrained cedary oak. It’s finely crafted, elegant and willowy, with a pleasing length of gentle fruit, reserved oak and supple tannins, finishing with fresh acids and just a hint of a green edge.
