Ripe beetroot, cranberry, redcurrant, slight foresty greenness and some aged earthy tertiary tones on the quite complex nose. The light-bodied palate continues with the same theme, adding lingonberry, red fruit and mushroom as well as decent acidity. Smooth but noticeable tannins and long finish with some bitterness. Well in balance, the fruit still going strong, so will probably keep for some time. However I think this is now at its peak, offering both fresh fruitiness and some aged tertiary character in an attractive mix.

Raspberry, redcurrant, mushroom, truffle and wine lees on the nose, long on the palate, semi-transparent brick colour, complex and elegant - we had it with a guinea fowl and it worked beautifully.

Raspberry, cherry, blackberry, aged leaves; Aged presence, distinguished, balanced, slight effervescence, mouth-coating, extremely long finish; not overly complex, vaguely sherry-like, a little too dusty, but still quite good

Sweet fruit, green, forest floor. Good acidity. Mature. Complex and interesting. Consistent with the 3, good, previous notes from 2016 and 2017.
