Shy, slightly waxy aroma, straw and hay, savoury and not especially detailed or nuanced. Toasty almonds and richer, fuller palate, with some alcohol and phenolic weight and emphatic finish. A big wine from a good red year.

Hand-picked 5 Feb; fermentation initiated in stainless steel, then transferred to French barriques (30% new) and matured on lees until Aug. The brilliant straw-green colour introduces a wine that traces its lineage back to '71, the skill involved oozing from every pore and facet, not the least the tangy citrus/grapefruit farewell.
