  Drank because the 2019’s are not ready yet and deciding how many 2021’s to buy.

  Aromatic wafts of blackberry, fresh asphalt and iron. In mouth the wine is still fresh and not 6 years old. I get huge amounts of casssis, tobacco leaf, bay leaf and back end cherry in mouth.
  
  Such a great wine which ends in that familiar dusty mouthfeel. Lots of residue in the finish. Lovely and worth enjoying.

  Probably the best 17 ive had. This has plush fruits with lots of dark cherry and some blueberry, with hints of minerality, but much less than other vintages as this is more fruit forward. You would never know this is a cool vintage as there are no green notes (nor any smoke taint). I am really impressed with the quality here and i might need to reassess and open some of these outpost’s earlier.

  Upon opening the graphite nose is very inviting but even after 2-3 hours the alcohol is quite strong. Black and blue fruits with graphite and tobacco notes. Last glass was after 10h + of air and it was quite spectacular. Probably needs 3-5 years in bottle or a very long decant!
