Earthy, savoury notes on the nose, I always find this wine so expressive and unique in terms of aromatics. A little shy and subdued compared to more recent quite impressive vintages. Tannins are fine and filling, there's lovely purity to the fruit with concentration to - smoke, peppercorns, flint, cedar as well as mouthwatering blueberry and cranberry fruit.  This has tannin finesse, depth, roundness and fresh acidity yet this still feels a touch closed at this point. I love the chalky and mineral elements, graphite, liquorice and wet stones. This still needs some time to fully harmonise but there's great potential. 7% Syrah and 7% Petit Verdot complete the blend.
