This bottle was a fast bus headed straight into the heart of Funky Town which, I typically don’t mind at all. In this case however, there wasn’t enough of other things going on to make it more interesting. Barnyard, red fruits, spices and undigested hay. A good wine but expected more considering the pedigree of the producer. The relatively weak vintage could have something to do with it.

Lovely wine. Some star struck cross between mushrooms and dried flowers. Soft fruit gives way to its bolder earth. Elegantly structured and beautifully layered. This will only improve with a few years rest.
