Tasting Notes

Reduction overrides the other aromas and renders them all but invisible. The brooding yet supple medium-bodied flavors possess good ripeness before culminating in a delicious, robust and persistent finish. There is some of the hallmark youthful austerity present but less than is typical. Very promising. Drink: 2023+

Toasty and slightly, nicely, reduced – though it gives a hint of rubber at the moment. Dry and savoury and quite dense on the palate with a fresh bite to finish.
