Lovely complexity and intrigue within the bouquet, with aromas of texture and brightness, followed by scents of dark cherry and baked strawberry, some wild plum and dried herb. There’s also a deep minerality reminiscent of silt and sandstone. This wine offers a delicious, lighter-weighted expression as it touches the palate, with fine tannins and a refreshing acid line. The fruit flavours reflect the bouquet, along with earthy highlights and gentle dried herb qualities. Best drinking from late 2024 through 2030.
