SF | Deeply saturated with a powerful aromatic dominated by black fruit, spice and an intense lifted character; licorice, fennel and smoke. Dense and uncompromising, refreshing and neatly etched, a fascinating wine, which is by turns, powerful seductive and , if not fiery ( the dragon is benign) is at least eloquent, appreciably potent, and distinctive. 91
AJ | Dark, dense, black-red, though not opaque. Sweet, lively, open; some sense of mixed ripeness here, for all that. But the fresh notes work well with the sweeter fruits. Pure and lively; boisterous fruits and impressive concentration. A generous reading of the vintage, with some finishing depth and drive.Drink Dates: 2026 - 2031.
