Smooth and sleek, lovely silky fruitiness combined with quite fleshy, but powdery and juicy tannins giving a really delicate, almost light expression that has mineral markers and lots of life. Nice energy and unfussiness. Crisp and sharp but with depth too. Succulent and mouthwatering, clean and pure, with bite and lingering liquorice and minerality.

Light on its feet, this is supple and bright with succulent red berry and cherry fruit and accents of liquorice and mint. Lovely purity of fruit with direction and push.
