Bottle with excellent ullage and conditions. PNP into Zalto Burgundy glass (‘Root’ day): Medium ruby with some deep orange hints towards the rim - good colour.
Still relatively bright red fruits like cranberries and cherries infused with distinctive pine-like herbal notes and sous bois. Some white peppery spices and very slight hints of mushrooms. Really like the integration and focus of the nose.
Good acidity to sustain the flavours through start to finish. Very Good grip and silky tannins. An exceptionally poised NSG. 93-94 points as I believe this can still improve slightly over next 2-3 years.
