This is just perfectly mature now and showing so well. Nothing overdone here with such a fine silky texture and a lovely layered finish with notes of dark fruits and minerals. Lunch at the winery.

Decanted briefly. Stunningly firm, pure, and dense blackcurrant with beautiful acid lift and earth. I did not expect such good structure from a 2007 or from Melbury but this is absolutely singing. No reason to hold further. Wonderful.

Drinking well already, the driving characteristic is the purity and focus of the fruit. I'm half of a mind that this wine will drink at its best younger than not, but I will save my other copy for a while to see. Truth to tell we haven't ever been too patient with Bond, because it's so compelling young. Excellent wine.

Fantastic wine that still has some life. Won’t open my last btl until 2026/2027.
