It’s remarkable. Just a bit of a breathe and the Modus Operandi ‘22 Gaps Crown roars to life. Deep, layered stewed red fruits on the nose lead to a truly remarkable palate that evolves and blooms as it breathes. The finish just never seems to let go, and reminds me with each sip why I’ve fallen for the Gaps Crown every year I’ve tried it.

Dec 25th, 2024Tried the ‘21 Gaps Crown, this bottle being a good six months from last we tried - and it is clearly rounding into form. From the looks of it- the how is a Cab. As in: ‘did I open the right bottle?’ Kind of double-take. But the second you breathe it in and take a few sips, well; you’ll find yourself back at the same question that you have an inclination has so-far gone unsolved. This is the third bottle we’ve opened of the same wine & vintag; some three months apart. To put a fine point on it: it’s from high-end stock that’s starting to come into its prime. And what a prime is be.
