    July 19, 2020 - Bright red fruits and some mushrooms in the nose. The fruits are also dominating the palate, the mushroom less so. Lovely, clear presence of juicy acidity are hinting at a range of small, red fruits with a constant backdrop of minerals. Yes, there is a bit of eucalyptus that is enhancing the experience. Blood orange / mandarin towards the finish emphasise the complexity and if you give it some time, the smoothness stands out. Excellent.
    In my opinion this is as good as it gets with this 2014 vintage. No reason to give it any more years in the cellar.
