I tried this on release, thought it was terrific and bought a case. Glad I did as it is absolutely humming now. On the nose you get some smoked meats, iron and cherry fruit. It is plush and velvety with great depth and complexity for its level. The finish has good minerally detail.

Drank this initially on my own as I thought it was going to be over but was very pleasantly surprised to find how drinkable it was. Probably at its best, a light nose but still buckets of fruit, unmistakably burgundy and drinking now. May hit wine searcher to get a case!

Recanted two hours before drinking. Excellent before, with and after lamb.

Solid, hairspray, complex pinot sap, old vine, not your run of the mill 02. A tad angular, I'd give it 2-3 years yet.
