Just starting to take on some secondary notes now, a touch of barley sugar and lanolin. Very full-bodied, but athletic - there's no excess fat here. Great energy and vibrancy. So complex already, a quintessential Hermitage. Long finish, the mango and quince fruit team together well with the oak, neither dominating. Incredible length, perfectly balanced, a perfect reflection of the Hill in the glass. Exultant. You can drink this now, and it's incredible. In theory it will improve somehow. I would drink from 2025 onwards.
