  The wine was medium garnet in colour and offered red fruit, strawberry, oak, coconut, spices, creamy vanilla and a hint of chocolate on the nose and palate, with fresh, medium-level acidity, smooth, medium-level tannin, a good, creamy mouthfeel and very good length. This light-bodied wine was the most elegant oak monster I have come across to date. I would hold and wait for the oak to integrate. Start drinking from 2030. 89+ for now, with good upside potential.
