Bright and alive, an expressive and wide aromatic display with dried, fragranced strawberries and dried cranberries on the nose - fruity and floral. Finessed and dramatic, taught and lean, this has a lovely tenison and direction from start to finish. Tannic but well defined, they're imposing and fill the mouth but soon soften and melt into the background leaving the slightly spiced, and warming, red fruits and cedar to give the dominating flavours. Smooth, ripe, flowing, superb energy and overall weight in the mouth with a long and lingering spicy, fresh finish.  Despite the strength, power and motion there is a lovely sense of delicacy and control with elegance and finesse.  Drink now and enjoy or benefit from its clear ageing potential. 3.38pH.  The second release of this wine which is a plot selection of 2.85ha from a 15ha vineyard dating back to 1968 in Elciego.  Production of 2,600 bottles.
