Fullish red colour with slightly purple tinge. Subdued pepper spice aromas, shy and a touch reticent, the palate lean and taut, nervy and lacking richness and fruit sweetness. It's bony, skeletal and slightly astringent. Grippy aftertaste. Needs time. A tad disjointed now.

A beautifully evolving wine. Lovely earthy, leathery notes over easy, natural, rustic red fruit. An unforced wine that shows suppleness and poise. Drinking really well right now.
