Tasting Notes

This sample is from a one-year old barrel although the final wine with have 40% new. There are lovely fresh cherries and raspberry on the nose, quite floral, with hints of rose petals coming through. There is a lot of freshness on the palate, real sense of energy and great tension/definition. Dark red-berries, redcurrants, a hint of blueberry with a touch of liquorices on the dry finish. Very fine

Score: 89 - 91

All Merlot. Gravelly sandy soils. Dark and rich–looking. Big and burly on the nose. Sweet and rich – very flattering yet fresh.Rather simple red fruits. Raw acidity. Very much a second wine.... Pretty angular on the finish.

Score: 16
