Cork

Another corker of a wine from Dalla Valle. Liquorice, mint, aniseed and dark fruit with a smokey edge - very seductive and beguiling. This is pulsing with life and, despite the clear concentration and pretty strong muscular frame, it has an excellent personality. This is not for the faint hearted, it’s extremely spiced and bitter with dark chocolate, liquorice, aniseed and clove spice although countered by blue and black berry fruit, wispy florality and slate-edged minerality.  The vintage is speaking but still, in terms of power, presentation, style, precision and overall impact this is hard not to love! Just brilliant.
