Review
Such a pretty-smelling wine with lifted aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry and red cherry fruits sheathed in fine spice and hints of curing meats, raspberry clafoutis, minerals, wildflowers, dried citrus rind, thyme and crushed rock. Wonderfully composed on the palate, the fruit dancing in step with the powdered-schisty tannins and mineral-rich acid line, cutting a graceful line and finishing long, detailed and harmonious. A cracker.

Review
Dense and brooding nose of black fruit, cocoa and smoky oak, quite closed and muted. Drying woody tannins grip the palate from the outset, burying the dark fruit and crunchy bay leaf flavours under a layer of dense structure. Violet, black fig, sticky date and savoury olive flavours eventually overcome the structure on the concentrated finish, suggesting that everything will come together in time, albeit on the dark and serious side of the spectrum. Good potential here
