Notes | |||
"It displays a deep, crystalline color and a bright violet-ruby rim. The nose is expressive of crunchy ripe red and black fruits, flint, rose petal and violet. The palate strikes immediately with a density of texture, balanced and lifted by bright acidity and freshness of fruit, which gives way to notes of spice underpinned by silky, elegant tannins. The long finish is driven by vibrant acidity, bright fruit, and a chalk dust-like minerality." —winemaker |

"A little less evolution in the aromatics here than the 2011, emphasis instead on toasty grilled oak and turmeric spice, set amid dark berry fruits. A lot is hidden right now, the texture is charming and fleshy, but these are big tannins and it has plenty to give over the next decade." —Decanter |
