The oak is well handled, the nose is complex. Creamy mouth with good length. Smoke, and a certain bitterness. A rarity, very well made but not my thing.

Nov 5th, 2019A hot summer and overall difficult vintage that resulted in one of the earliest picks for this wine has resulted in one of the most austere versions of this bottling I’ve tasted. Still incredibly charming and well made, this is going to deliver pleasure over the next 5-7 years.
