Drinking Window: 2021 - 2031
Definitely settling comfortably in to middle age with forest floor and autumnal brambles on the nose. Rich, fleshy and plump, wonderfully velvety, and appealingly savoury with roasted dark plums, and a saline note. Rich resounding finish. Very finely mananged influence of French oak.
