Vintage 2014
96 points The Real Review
Deep red colour with a strong purple tint, youthful for its age, and the bouquet is very complex and oak-infused, starting to turn toasty and 'roasting pan' complex with some notes of smoked meats. The wine is full-bodied and firmly-structured, with abundant tannins which are smooth and fleshy, the aftertaste long and elegant.
