Bottling: February 14, 2021.
Alcohol: 14,5 % vol

Tasting notes

Intense ruby red colour. On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits and white flowers, with balsamic notes. To the palate the wine is intense, well structured, and sustained by a good acidity, and a salty minerality. Long and persistent finish.

<< From a dusty, stony backdrop, evocative scents of jasmine, fennel and thyme blossom emerge. The palate is concentrated, with dark cherry and blackberry girdled by muscular tannins, very chalky in texture. Then it bursts with bright acidity on the finish >>. (Decanter 2024, 94/100)

<< Fresh and crunchy with orange peel, cherries, raspberries and hints of raw meat. It’s medium-bodied with medium-round tannins and a succulent finish. Polished and creamy. Lightly chewy and crisp at the end.>> (James Suckling 2024: 95/100)
