Distinctively perfumed as usual – blueberry, blood orange, redcurrant, cherry cola, blackcurrant, sandalwood, and smoky incense. The palate is bright, crunchy and concentrated. Although quite tense and reined-in at this youthful stage, there is a rounded and juicy saturation of fruit. Lit by an almost saline acidity, there are also fine, chalky tannins as the core structure. The finish is glossy and satisfying. 94pts
