95 Points

Thursday, January 25, 2024 - Dark Amber in hue, this takes a few mouthfuls to give up it's jewels and what jewels they are.
Hazelnut comes and goes, orange peel too, whilst a reticent caramel remains always, subtle yet enduring.
A plethora of tastes, no not tastes, a plethora of feelings.
A log fire in winter. Burnt wood. Fresh spring tides. Summer and sand. Maybe autumn and leaves and the last vestiges of warmth before the weather turns. All kinds going on!
This is not an unyielding wine. It has so much to it but it keeps giving way and letting all of its various splendours have their moments. It let's you pick your focus in any given mouthful. It offers everything up and allows you to choose the direction you head off in.
There is freshness and salinity allied to a nutty, complex depth. This is an unbelievably good wine and an absolute pleasure to sit and slowly sip.
