Delicious stuff. Well worth buying again at a good price. Loads of spice and sweet fruit, hints of oak in the background. Soft, fine-grained tanins. Not a long ager, but doing well now.

After giving one as a gift, thought I'd crack one for myself. This producer tends to overperform, in my view, in a modernist way. Deftly handled, but no shortage of oak. Sweet fruit, well balanced, but with loads of extraction. Very nice, but not for the traditionalists among us.

Better than the last bottle we drank a year ago. Lot's of fruit, mostly berries. Should be even better in another year.

Tastes excellent now. Very enjoyable with a grilled sirloin.
