$428 inc. GST
An attractively fresh and ultra-floral-inflected nose offers up notes of red and dark currant, sandal wood and a lovely array of spice elements. The super-sleek, if not especially dense, middle weight flavours possess superb delineation as well as ample minerality on the dusty, focussed and impressively long finale. This is delicate but definitely punchy with the stuffing to easily repay 10 to 12 years of keeping. Sweet Spot Outstanding. 91-94 Burghound.
Medium to seep ruby purple. The nose is of the highest class, and the sensuality of the palate also, all in an exquisite red fruit, hard to pick out one. The stems give a vivacity to the finish, where then fruit continues unabated. The words are everyday, the wine is not. You need to go after it says Bruno. Effortless. Delicacy with tensile strength. Drink from 2030 - 2038. **** 94-97 Jasper Morris.
