2014. Yummy acidity and fresh fruit. Restrained tannins. Sooo much better after breathing for 1.5 hours.

2011. A bit funky but not too funky. Bright and pure strawberries paired with some port-like notes - which is odd, right?

Needs about an hour of air. Really beautiful fruit emerges after some time in the glass. Much more elegant than I was expecting.

Very interesting and seems not usual. Definitely on a vegetable aromas, although 18m in oak add some coal or grill notes. If it has to be green pepper, it will be a grilled and maybe slightly burned one

Slight spritzy-ness! Tart, deep spicy berry flavors. Dark but medium bodied. Pleasant and fun with an edge.

Strongly perfumed nose, strawberry vinegar, pencil shavings, rose and pine. Opens nicely to blueberry pie. Bone dry. Muted tannins.
