  purposefully simple and light, yet juicy, genuine and lots of non-fruit complexity that no way i would have guessed there's no wood influence. but maybe won't keep much longer, developed some weird flavor in the following days in fridge.

  Quite black cherry and cocoa on nose and palate. In the mouth, a touch of oak, spice and chocolatey flavours. Drinking very well at the moment,

  Excellent wine - beautiful lightness, allied to chocolatey-ripe fruit, and well-judged structure. This has a nice sense of transparency, alongside a warm climate style. Superb value.

  Refined, chocolatey goodness. Beautifully judged fruit, subtle, but effective tannic structure, excellent proportion. Drinking very well right now, but has the stuffing to age on its excellent fruit quality for another 5 years.

  Consistently excellent. Lovely balance, great sense of depth. Fine oak handling. Impeccable structure.
