A fantastic weekday claret!.... and absolute steal at the price. Exhibiting a richness and balance of tannins, oak and sweetly ripened fruits, rounded, elegant and intense without losing its lush open character. Spice abounds, laced with vanilla and touch of graphite and minerality. Balanced, long . A classed growth in all but price.

Delicious with rare roast beef with seasonal vegetables and yorkshire pudding.

Aged for 12 months in 40% in barrels of which 57% in new barrels. The remaining 60% in stainless steel vats.
