Saturated ruby. Displays candied blue fruits, cherry, pungent flowers, olive and baking spices on the highly fragrant nose. Sweet and precise on the palate, offering mineral-laced blueberry, cherry-cola and violet pastille flavors that are braced by a spine of juicy acidity. Smoothly blends power and delicacy and finishes long and spicy, with discreet tannins adding framework and gentle grip. 2024 - 2032
(casks) dark robe; the nose is reserved, has a sweet centre, carries blue fruit, a note of grilling. The palate runs with lissom content, appeals via its silken texture, leads into a succulent, entertaining finish with plenty of squeezy richness there. The freedom and persistence of the fruit is its ace card, and it’s shapely, jolly Rôtie that will please. There’s a hint of mineral on the aftertaste, and that influence may well grow over time. From 2022. 2040-42 ****
