Decanter: 90 Punkte
Dark fragrance on the nose. Quite high toned fruit, really focussed on the mouth-watering red berry fruit, searing almost, with lots of chalky, wet stones and liquorice giving a mineral menthol and slightly spiced undertone. But this carries power and focus, not heavy or fleshy, but nicely constructed with good drive and focus. Not the most complex, but well delivered. Will be easy to drink with a touch of sweetness adding an extra nuance. 3.50pH, Ageing 12 months, 20% new oak.
