" I love the richness and vitality of the fruit on the nose, which ranges from blueberry and blackcurrant to cherry essence. A touch of baking spice too. The fruit doesn't disappoint on the palate, blending well with fresh acidity and a hint of savory tannins. Drink from 2020." (James Suckling 2018)
