{screwcap, 14%} Lovely youthful nose; plums, delicatessen-meat aromas. Very fresh and seductive nose. The palate is beautifully fresh too; light-bodied and pure, with only faint oak, a smoky aspect to the tart red flavours. There's a little bit of chalky dryness to the finish, but really the acid and tannins are pretty unobtrusive, and the finish is a but short. But in that context it's well-enough balanced, just not all that special. At best within 5 years I reckon.

Nicely made, but I wasn't impressed; a bit jammy nose and taste, pure but also somewhat onedimensional.

Incredible value. Was listed at around 33$ in the previous year, now 17$. Same quality for half the price.
