92 Points

Sunday, May 8, 2022 - My first of this vintage, drunk over two evenings 48 hours apart, and there was quite a contrast as the wine developed considerably in the interim.

On the first evening, it had a red/garnet colour, and the fruit was redcurrant, raspberry and a hint of blueberry. There were some more developed savoury elements and there was also some tannin holding it back. Perhaps 91/100.

By the second evening it had opened out considerably. The colour seemed darker, as did the fruit, and the wine was quite meaty and long. Definitely a step up. Upgrade to 92/100.

Overall, this suggests that the wine is good now but will improve with more time.
