This is a lovely wine. I'd rather drink this, in fact, than many higher scoring wines. Why? Because it is fresh, lithe and thirst-slaking, not to mention beautifully poised, medium-bodied and succulent. Who cares about concentration when a wine is this savory and gluggable? A verdant edge to the violets, mulberries and damsons, with an astringent lilt. A dangerous, energetic finish. This reminds me of a good Chinon or better, Cahors. Among the classiest quaffers ever. Love this! Drink now, but best after 2025.
Vivid and insanely beautiful nose, full of plum, fresh cassis, violets and cedar, with nuances of fireplace ash and black pepper. Supple and caressing, long.

Tasting Notes
Perfume is the signature of this wine with lifted violets, bramble and redcurrant fruits. Bright fruit flavours include cranberry, mulberries and blueberries. Fresh nettle presents a leafy lift and clove spices dance with vibrant acidity and the elegant fruit drive. The Malbec brings the energy and crunch to the wine. A wine of wonderful fruit purity.
