Fruit-driven, simpler style with lots of fresh wild berry and spice character. Some lively CO2 presence.

Bottled under some kind of Diam-type cork, so it needs a lot of air. Once it gets going: just a big, edgy, sappy Cru of real power and distinction. Roasted winter fruits and granite. Don’t let the 12.5% alcohol throw you; this is one of those ‘16s that will need years to come good.
