Vintage

Displays a dense, dark garnet-red core with light garnet and orange reflections at the rim. The nose provides a deep and evolving core of black and red fruits. Classic notes of black and red currant, black plum and preserved black cherry meld into secondaries of dried violet, thyme, leather, red tobacco, bay leaf, cacao, cigar box and wet clay. The palate is nearly full-bodied and reveals a clear sense of fruit and earth with soft, yet structured tannins; there is substantial complexity here.

Tech Sheet

91pts Decanter Magazine– 2015 vintage

FOR THE 2015 VINTAGE
Fragrant, dark fruit and liquorice notes. Tannins are sweet, ripe and fine. Smooth texture with freshness running through and length on the finish. Really precise this year.

91pts James Suckling– 2015 vintage

FOR THE 2015 VINTAGE
Floral and aromatic with dark-berry and rose character on the nose. Full body, layered and ripe tannins and a flavorful finish. Comes off a little short but still outstanding. Give it two or three years of bottle age to come together.
