The gorgeous, medium-high to highly aromatic nose is fresh with flinty minerality, savoury dark red cherry-berry, currant, raspberry, cranberry, earthy, strawberry, and mushroom aromas in a very complex profile. It's medium-full bodied on the dry palate with lovely balanced aroma replays on the flavour profile joined by cran-cherry notes. It has very nice, well-balanced acidity, alongside supple, textured tannins. earthy, savoury, and black tea notes linger on the exceptionally long finish. Tasted May 2025. Score: 93+ pts
