  February 1, 2021 - Fairly oaky but not extracted, the style could be called Pinot-like. Charcoal and smoky Black Forest ham nose, not much fruit. Lean and tight, hardly medium-bodied. Lighter on entry but becomes a bit angular on the finish, it’s quite dry and acid driven. Could be a bit rounder, more generous and less oaky but its savoury character is appealing. It might even improve a bit with a few years of aging. 86-87p

  December 2, 2020 - Pale colour.
  N: Medium (-) aroma intensity. Pleasant aromas of fresh black berries with plenty of black pepper. Not complex.
  P: High acidity, some unbalanced wild acidity bouncing around the palate. No real depth or complexity. Perhaps a bit more savoury, gravelly flavour, bit of bretty funk? But not out of control.
  
  Pleasant enough mid-week, easy-drinking wine that demonstrates some 'natural' influence.
