"Succulent and juicy with fleshy, filling tannins that are so enjoyable. Blueberries, raspberries, some cranberry crunch with lashings of wet stone, graphite, slate, iron tang and liquorice spice. Wonderfully forward and bright but keeping a relatively straightforward expresion. Defies the vintage, I really like this. Hints of seduction in the depth of flavour while keeping a firm grip from the start. Ageing 50% new oak barrels for 12-14 months." - Georgina Hindle (04/2025)

"Cocoa bean and coffee on the nose, firm blue plum and cassis, confidently made, teasing extraction that almost goes too long but pulls back and delivers mouth watering fruits. Acidity high, in the character of the vintage, but this is one to look out for, particularly after another year of softening ageing. 50% new oak. Harvest 17 to 28 September." (04/2025)
