A glorious bottle of this lovely wine, which is probably drinking at its peak, but certainly shows no sign it won't maintain this level for years to come. Complex, bright, velvet smooth and very deep on the palate. There is matured complexity in spadefuls but also freshness and stacks of fruit.

Powerful but silky smooth; elegance and fruit freshness beyond the normal, black fruits running through the length of the palate; ripe tannins, restrained oak. Another testament to 2002. Cork.
