2004 vintage. I had a bottle of this 2004 cabernet sauvignon /syrah/merlot blend before, and this bottle seems so much younger. As a reminder, this is the top wine of the estate, produced only in the very best years (2004, 2007 and 2010 up to now, with 2015 and 2017 in the pipeline) and released when it starts to be ready to drink. Complex nose with dark cherries, dried figs, tobacco and cedar wood. Harmonious taste, delicate cherry fruit, combined with subtle spices, fresh acidity and gently extracted tannins. Nice length too. Amazing value. Grows in the glass, take your time or decant.
