Picked 30th August for the young vines, 5th September for the rest. The colour is purple-black and the fruit seems richer and riper. There is just a tiny bit greater density of fruit but it is more the style and the ripeness of the tannins which make the distinction. Nice acidity behind.
Vinous Media - Neal MArtin
It has a pretty bouquet of brambly red fruit, briar and light tertiary scents that gradually unfold in the glass. The palate is well balanced with nice grip on the entry. This is underlined by a fine bead of acidity that lends wonderful freshness and race on the finish. Superb.
Wine Enthusiast - Anne Krebiehl MW
A hint of woodsmoke combines with this wine's shy aromas of black cherry. The palate comes in with surprising grace and svelteness, presenting a filigreed but firm structure. Cherry aromas shimmering with Morello and Amarena are expressed against that frame, crunching slightly and heightened by vivid freshness. This wine has compact, elegant power and inherent conviction. Drink through 2050.
