Unsure whom suggested this wine is drinking best in 2014 - well off, great year in Pemberton!! Drunk this on the 4th of April 2021 and showed again the beauty of this vineyard and it’s makers. Secondary fruit starting to come through - with a barnyard, savoury cherry / rhurbard nose - savoury cherries, balanced oak and acidity that lingers on the backplate with lovely tannins all the way through, Burgundian style indeed. Drink now but will go for another 3 to 5!!

Opened, drank a glass then left in decanter overnight, drinking superbly, sour berry juiciness with some nice tannic astringcy to keep it sharp and on point.

Definitely getting better with age. Body filling out. Balance of ingredients steadily improving.

Better balance than the last bottle. Jammy fruit notes not evident. Still a bit light in body, but shows promise for development
