Product details
A gorgeous, scented nose combines flowers and wild raspberries. The palate is sweet and succulent, with boysenberries, strawberries and yet more voluptuous raspberry. and some deft oak and spice in the background. It's very vivacious and expressive, with some heft, flesh and density. Perhaps thanks to the old vine fruit - averaging 55 years old here - it feels a little coiled at present, and the grainy tannins will need time to unfurl, but there is balancing lightness, acidity and finesse alongside the evident power and concentration. Long, mineral finish.
