Showing a lot of fragrance &#8211; beautifully perfumed with a lift of violet and lavender on the nose. A fresh acidity gives excellent linear drive through the palate and then the bold, fine tannin kicks in, giving structure and spine to the wine.

A serious, structured style, showing a classic Bordeaux style. An inkily dark ruby colour, with aromatics that are filled with cedar, cranberry, vanilla, plum, graphite, and hedgerow notes of rosemary and blackberry. A prickle of drying tannin leads into the dense palate. Oak plays a part here \u2013 seasoning the mid-palate with a toasty spice, laid over a succulent core of dark fleshy fruit.

An elegant and complex palate, leaning heavily on the chalky tannin, but also with a bright acidity across broad shoulders.
