Stunning and effortless. Noses large. Palette builds with expressive depth, luxurious mouthfeel and lovely spectrum of ripe red but mostly black fruit behind which lies the sun. Tannins are there but have a chew that resolves the fruit and makes for balance. I'm sure this is not even drinking at its best.

Freezing cold today so grabbed this winter warmer. What a great combo of fruit and secondary notes - ba blackberry and blackcurrant set a base for a tobacco and leather flavour combo with a slight forest floor note.
