Still going strong and improving with time. A wise buy for any cellar.
Technical wine sheet
Deep dark ruby with purple edges still showing. The nose is complex and layered, with chestnut, warming spices, dry grape and notes of fig and plum speaking of careful ageing. On the palate the tannins are finely tuned and the acidity crisp and fresh, framing concentrated wild berry flavours with admirable precision. This is a wine built to age, one that grows in complexity with every passing year.
