8 Jun, 2020 – Perfumed and enticing with dried flowers, meat and sandalwood. Roses, too. Medium to full body and round yet fine tannins. It long and very balanced. Needs two or three years to open. Better after 2022.

8 Jun, 2020 – A opulent, exotic red with ripe berries, plums and hints of toffee and flowers. Full-bodied, round and ripe tannins and a long, savory finish. This young red has so much going for it. Give it some more time to see it all. Better after 2022.

8 Jun, 2020 – Lovely purity of fruit with fresh, ripe strawberries and hints of hazelnuts, wet earth and black mushrooms. Full-bodied, very layered and rich with firm tannins that spread across the palate. A more opulent 2016. Try after 2022.

8 Jun, 2020 – I like the lifted nose of ripe fruit, meat and spice with hints of fresh roses. Full body, round tannins and a ripe, juicy finish. Hard not to drink. Better after 2022.
