BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford: Full gold. Very rich, oaky, meaty almost; also some mint; layered fragrance, assertive, an animal presence, limeflower also—bloomy and full. Arresting and good. Intense saturated, complex, deep. Lots of oak and acid... Not hugely sweet, though. Complete and composed. Less sweet than I expected. Drinking in 10+ years.
