This bottle had a good fill and good colour. The nose was immediately punchy, smelling of dark earth and smoldering autumnal leaves. There was a hint of spice and something sweet and vinous at its heart. It was lacy and ethereal, fanning out on the finish with its length of flavour carried by a fine line of minerally acidity.

A tertiary nose of black truffle, earth, smoke, decaying leaves and pine needle sap. It is fine, lacy and elegant in the mouth. It feels relatively compact and has a sweet vinous core. It is unctuous in an almost oyster kind of way and has a saline minerality to the finish. It is cut with lively acidity.
