Tasting Notes
An individual style: full-bodied, multi-layered and a world away from the mainstream. Terroir spice, stone fruit, citrus, tobacco and curry on the nose. The palate is dense and balanced, with excellent length. The profile opens up further in the glass, showing plenty of ageing potential for further years of bottle ageing.
More about the tastingSaffron, curry, crushed rock with lemon blossom, hints of apricot, basil. Quince and kumquat on the palate. Dense, demanding, dark minerality. Almost austere. Positive phenolics, multi-layered, intense and long. Clearly needs air and time.
