Critic tasting note: (2020 vintage) "Dark ruby red colour. Initially notes of candle wax, bacon fat, then incense, cherries, wild berries, then some resin and pine needles, lots of toast. Juicy on the palate, with a very savoury notion and progression, though very toasted on the palate, with notes of light malt, still very young, put it away and forget about it." - Falstaff

2020 Vintage
Tasted: Oct 2023
Dark ruby red colour. Initially notes of candle wax, bacon fat, then incense, cherries, wild berries, then some resin and pine needles, lots of toast. Juicy on the palate, with a very savoury notion and progression, though very toasted on the palate, with notes of light malt, still very young, put it away and forget about it.
2020 Vintage
Tasted: Sep 2023
Exotic oriental spices, black pepper, black berries with hints of pine cones, porcini mushrooms and incense. Naturally concentrated on the palate with a full body rounded by plush, velvety tannins. Very long and mealy. Drink or hold.
2020 Vintage
Tasted: Jun 2023
Powerful and decidedly dark in sensory profile, it shows notes of black plums, blackberries, black tea leaves, juniper berries, wet asphalt and coriander. Lots of new wood dominates the secondary scene and deprives the matrix slightly of freshness and sex appeal. Full body, velvety tannins and a really dense progressive finish. Remarkable but perhaps too muscular! Better from 2025.
