  This wine is gorgeous. Black fruits, menthol, oak spices, baking spices, savoury notes, and still developing. There is not a thing out of place. It is gorgeous. And after a sip, just sit back and let the finish linger on the palate. You'll be rewarded.

  This was a disappointment. Purchased ex Cellar Door and stored in very good conditions. Opened it Friday night, was very tightly wound initially, with a fair bit of 'vibrant' acid. I put 2/3 of bottle in the wine fridge over night and came back to it the next day - the wine had completely fallen over and was undrinkable. You win some and sometimes you lose one.

  Notes of anise, light lavender. Rich and tasty. Theirs a bit of subtle inbuilt eucalyptus. All in all, it's a nice wine but it doesn't stand out for me.

  brief notes, tiny pour
  
  N....rich fruit, some wood, intense
  
  T....heavy body, inky, gentle tannins, big wine, dry leather , classy, warm spices, a lot of earthy minerality.
  
  Rec RP £36.00.....feels easily worth that
