"As one would expect, this offers another step up in aromatic depth and elegance, in particular refinement of the ripe, airy and impressively layered spicy red and black pinot fruit nose that displays hints of wood and earth that can also be found on the rich, full, sweet and seriously intense flavors underpinned by strong detail, minerality and excellent energy. This is at once suave yet beautifully precise while the sneaky long finish does a slow but sure build to an explosive finale."
