The first thing you notice is the oak. After a little while in a decanter, the blackberries come forward. In the glass, however, it is still quite modest. Dark berries, more of a cherry character, the vanilla is there but thankfully somewhat restrained. Spontaneously, the 2012 vintage is gradually approaching its drinking window. But, honestly, I'm not so keen on this style anymore.

Citrus, lime minerals, and robust acids... yummy! A favourite wine from Alice et Oliver De Moor in Courgis.
