The amphitheatre block shines through in this vintage, creating a kaleidoscope of perfume and intense flavour that is most enticing. Opulence is here in the form of honeysuckle, ripe fig, white peach, and a touch of apricot, wrapped in just the right amount of acidity to ensure the creaminess and roundness are not lost. The hero of this wine is the hidden gem, carrying all on its shoulders a perfectly judged phenolic structure. This not only lifts the wine but will ensure it ages exceptionally well.

"Complex and engaging, and specifically, I like the core of flint and bright acidity it offers, to counterbalance the richness and spice on offer here."
