SF | Dense colour and attractive aromas of plum , tobacco and violets. Robust and resourceful on the palate; oak influenced and quite potent, yet structurally secure and powerful, with plenty more to give. 92
AJ | Still a deep, saturated black-red Sweet and lively, with fresh black-fruit notes still evident. Some liquorice, too: plenty of life left here on the basis of the aromas. Ditto on the palate: ample fruit with lot of vivacity to it. Supple backing tannins and a touch of seeming granite stoniness. Excellent Dao in great shape; admirable purity and harmony.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2030. 92
RM | Very deep opaque centre, thin browning rim; attractive lifted, bramble and wild hedgerow aromas; retaining firm minty ripeness on the palate supported by firm tannin structure but leading to a rather dry, austere finish.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2028. 90
