Vintage 2018 | mesmerizing blackberries, spices, a hint of iron. Powerhouse.

Light, lithe and pretty but unfortunately overoaked for my taste. Can tell its nice barrels though...

Very young and a bit tart acidity with a spicy earthiness and red fruit. Precise tannins hit the mid-palate but needs time.

Nice floral and berry scents on the nose, medium bodied with fruit and acidity balance and silky tannins
Should develop and age well

Last had this 4 years ago and it’s aging very nicely. More Burgundian than new world style - length is phenomenal and nuanced flavours are really good.

Excellent typical Burgundian style, light colour berries and savoury flavours
Nice nose, length balance and nice tannic and subtle on palate
