A wine that demands patience but rewards handsomely. Pure cassis and blackberry fruit emerge slowly, joined by pencil shavings and autumn leaves. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and lovely acidity that carries through a harmonious finish of brown spice and smoke. Still youthful but showing magnificent potential through 2030.
