A beautifully layered nose combines notes of mineral reduction

As it did from cask the nose is partially compromised by the presence of noticeable reduction so be sure to decant this

This is class in a glass though make no mistake that it is a wine that is going to require extended keeping if you wish to see it at its peak

this is the estate's entry-level bottling

lacy and delicate in texture for such a full-bodied wine

There is good volume and richness to the opulent and suave medium bodied flavors that display relatively fine detail on the firm and ever so mildly rustic finish. This is one of the rare 2010s that could actually be approached young if it was decanted for an hour or so first. 92 2022+
