Drinking Window: 2022 - 2035
With a robust but finely carved structure, this wine is drinking beautifully now but still has a long life ahead of it. The tannins are soft yet firm and the alcohol very well integrated. Seductively smokey nose and a complex palate of plum, blackberry, tobacco and forest floor. Long, lifted finish.
