Abundant fruit and even traces of unresolved tannins (which do not detract from the tasting experience).
Wonderful nose and quality winemaking on show here. Am thinking this could last longer in the cellar but acutely aware that this might be at its peak now. With 4 more bottles and some back vintages in hand, I think it’s time to drink up in 2024.

Identifiably strawberry on the nose and bramberly on the pallate. This is a delicate (not flimsy wine) but with medium - fruit that lingers for a short time. Structure without perceptible tannins, I assume this will develop further characteristics with a year or 2 more time in the cellar.
Enjoyable and unique without being remarkable.

Drinking beautifully. Good fruit but fully integrated and smooth without becoming flabby.
A meal in a glass and enjoyable to the last drop.
2 more to go but it’s time to drink up.
