Still youthful, with a layer of toast holding sway over the core of crushed plum, blackberry and mulled spice notes, which is weighty for the vintage. Shows good drive through the loam- and mineral-tinged finish, with slightly firm grip. Best from 2011 through 2017. 30 cases imported.
Lots of punch and smoothness - really polished and vital! Only on the very end do we get acidity and tannin. Very muscular. If anything, the white is heavier than the red! So supple it seems as though you could approach this quite young. Beautifully made.
