The lovely, medium-high intensity nose is fresh, balanced & complex w/ red & black fruits, currant, cassis, blackberry, grilled herbs, mint, toasty oak spice & savoury earth aromas. On the dry, medium-full bodied palate it has delicious aroma replays joined by some ripe plummy & smoke notes adding further complexity on the flavour profile. Acids are fresh & juicy, while the supple, well-structured tannins have a slightly chalky textured grip that will soften. Nicely balanced throughout w/ blackberry, savoury earth & smoky notes lingering on long, crisp finish. Tasted Aug. 2024 Score: 90+ pts

Oodles of flavour here, really big wine. But the fruit is, to my taste, veering into the overripe region. Others will like this more than I. Tasted Dec 2024,
