Michael Schuster: Faint herbaceousness to the nose, but this is more refined and less extracted than the vintages hitherto (the first was 2003). Good in its new wave/New World style, with plenty of warm, ripe fruit within the slightly chewy new wood tannin (50% new oak), and light, scented length. Price likely to make little sense. Drink young for its abundant fruit. 2011–17. 15+?
