Tasting Notes

JancisRobinson.com 17++

Certified organic by ICEA.Lustrous ruby with orange tinges. Fine and subtle and a little subdued with just a suggestion of new oak. Succulent but tight, while the tannins are still unsettled. Very long and with hidden depth. Great interpretation of the vintage with plenty of youthful fruit as well as freshness, but much too young to approach. All Sturm und Drang right now.
