BUY THE WINE

AJ | Light, bright garnet red with scarlet glints Gently fruited, with a summer-copse fullness: leaf-litter over warm earth. Harmonious and rounded in that style. Relatively dry, restrained and liquorice-infused on the palate, with more of those warm-earth complexities. Fresh and attractive wine in which there is no vintage strain evident.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2035. 90
MP | Gorgeous nose with very ripe black and red fruit including cherry, plum, berry and cranberry. The palate shows obvious ripe fruit and drying tannins. The fresh acidity lifts the back of the palate but the absence of complex fruit compromises this wine.Drink Dates: 2028 - 2033. 92
