"Beautiful balance of aromatics to flavour, flavour to structure, structure to length, tannins to acidity, rocky minerality to gracefulness. This is an impressive wine that simultaneously gives a sense of meticulousness and abundant life. Just a beautifully grown and crafted wine. Layers of aroma and flavour â notes of tobacco and earth, a hint of liquorice, black olive and just enough mixed peppers to lift everything. Shows cherry and blossom aromatics through palate but isnât about the fruit. Fine balance and mouthfeel. Ultra-fine tannins and a persistent long finish. Lovely purity here."
