The clove oak is quite noticeable at this stage; it's all melted into the rich black fruit on the palate however. Quite potent for a 2024, it's rich, ripe and generous. This has real freshness and elegance; it will be very fine when it's ready. If you're oak averse, perhaps avoid; if not, buy it. From limestone soils, fermented with natural yeast, aged in one- to three-year-old oak barriques.
