(at Decanter, London, 30 Apr 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2019
Brilliant pinkish bronze colour, almost more an orange wine than a pink. Quite tannic but perfumed with roses and quince. Lovely lifted lemony acidity. Unfiltered and unfined, no added sulphur. Drink with: spiced quail, grilled aubergines.
