Tannins are plentiful – providing a structural framework to the wine and ensuring good cellaring potential of 20+ years, however they are sufficiently fine and elegant to allow for immediate enjoyment.
A substantial red wine, but a svelte one. Creamy oak on curranty fruit with mulberry, tobacco and bay leaf as highlights. There’s quite a lot of oak here, but the balance hasn’t been thrown. Fruit quality is exemplary. Drink by 2037
