96 Points James Suckling
Quite expressive and exotic, with red plums, blackberries and iodine, as well as dried herbs and nori, quite fragrant spices and currants. The palate has a sleek, dense and long feel, with impressive fruit intensity, delivered in such contained and impressively composed style. This has such length and intensity with a silky texture. Old vines underpin the style here. Drink over the next decade or more.
 
Winemaker Notes
Dark fruits, dark plum, and lovely fennel seed notes on the nose. The sip reveals rich balsamic-glazed beets and damson plum, with white pepper in layers of complexity. Superb balance. Slaty, persistent, mineral-like tannins bring a generous framework for decades of cellaring. The wine’s considerable structure and depth will ensure that the fruit characters will develop over time revealing more complexity and providing immense interest
