Tasting notes
The nose offers rich unabsorbed oak; vanilla and toast. After a few minutes in the glass a core of the richest, ripest, purest fruit appears. Think cool blueberry, ripe blackcurrant, and black cherry compote. Then there’s a whiff of mint and dark chocolate too. In the mouth its rich and coating with generous ripe fruit and plenty of spice. This vintage needs time to come together, but there is so much potential here.
