The nose is robust and deeply scented, with aromas of mulberries, blackcurrants, pine needles and spices. The palate is full-bodied with firmly integrated tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of mocha, dark cherries, tapenade and dried herbs. Quite pure and focused. From a hot vintage. Drink or hold.
Rated 93/100 James Suckling
Shows character, with flashes of bay leaf and chestnut giving this a hint of brawn, even, while a tarry spine adds structure. Black currant and black cherry pâte de fruit notes are rich and fleshy as they drive long. The finish offers a touch of torrefied alder that winks at the vintage’s extreme nature, but overall this is solid. Drink now through 2031. 10,000 cases made.
Rated 92/100 The Wine Spectator
