Ray Jordan’s review
The vintage has contributed to a stylish and elegantly structured cabernet. It has just 2% each of merlot and petit verdot. Perfumed note of blackcurrant and sage-like dark fruits combine with intrigue on the nose. The palate is still quite firm with controlling fine chalky tannins and fine-grained oak working in perfect harmony. As it breathes sweet dark fruits emerge with layers of dark chocolate and dark plum.
