REVIEWS FROM PAST VINTAGES

"Bright crimson colour, perfumed and precise with lifted peony and violet floral notes alongside red cherry, green strawberry, five spice-edged plum sauce and darker blackcurrant and beetroot intensity. Ripe but present taffeta tannins allow some play to the fruit but contain it on the tightly-wound finish. A similar composition and vinification to the 2016, yet this is fresh and very youthful, almost the polar opposite in a milder, lower-yielding year."

"Fresh earth and roasted herb notes are dominant, with elements of tar, smoke and five-spice powder mingling with the black cherry and currant flavors at the core. Muscular tannins add to the intensity. Drink now through 2037."
