Two hour slow ox. Very dark purple with a very narrow rim. Long legs. Lovely nose dominated by black fruit over oak. In the mouth it is very dry and slightly astringent. Dark fruit dominates on the front end and on the finish with unresolved oak inthe middle. Long finish. Impressive and appealing but very young and to my palate overextracted and lacking subtlety. However, it is a very well made wine which will no doubt improve. I would hold.

Beautiful bouquet with dark berries and some smoke. On the palate the same impressions, beautifully fresh acidity and a good dose of oak. Beautiful wine in its very early maturity stage. 92 - 93

With Christmas lunch, gorgeous silken blackcurrant and blackberry, a very light touch of oak and a long memorable finish

Nice as always; power, fruit, balance, straightforward without “complications”
