Bright red and black fruit notes, with wet soil and woodspice in the background. The palate is very pleasingly juicy, with grippy yet fine tannin and a pleasing tang (not sour, but rather refreshing and a tad meaty) on the finish. A tad short, perhaps, but overall a very serious wine with plenty of development ahead.

Delicate, with plenty of acidity still remaining, fruit still fresh, although a note of caramel crept in towards the end of the bottle. A wine at it's peak, no further ageing required or recommended.

Very elegant, restrained, surprising wine. Initially a hint of Brett, but this was subsumed as the rest of the wine rose to the fore. Dark fruit character, complex and serious, a hint of sour cherry and charcoal. Very fine indeed.
