Scores

Plentiful red fruits here with hints of toffee and dried flowers on the nose. Full-bodied and tannic with chocolate and orange peel on the palate. Flavorful finish. Try after 2016. Score: 95 Points James Suckling

Tasting Notes

There is already considerable complexity on the nose, with elements of spice, red cherry and red currant as well as soft toast and even a little tar. It is rewarding enough just to sit and swirl this in a large glass and drink in the aromas. On the palate, the personality takes greater shape with more structure and evidence of tannic framework but less flesh than its sibling. Less flamboyant and more demanding than the Sperss, it nonetheless keeps a smile on its face, never surly. Fragrances continue to emerge, moving beyond the simply floral into the spectrums of medicines, herbs and spices. At least 3-5 years will give the tannins time to relax and then this will be delightful for drinking in the medium term. Drink 2016-2029.
