“Glossy and bright fruited.”

“Glossy and bright fruited, the oak a background choc milk contrast, the palate smooth, round and with a real bright red fruit resonance. I’m loving this new, vibrant direction. Milky oak is just a little dominant, but the silken texture is very nice, as are the finessed tannins. Smart wine that will only unfurl more in bottle (and such a contrast to previous vintages). Well priced too. Best drinking: now to fifteen plus years.” 18/20
