James Suckling

"The wood is quite marked at the moment with lots of spice and some orange notes, but also peaches and black plums. The palate has a very rich, spicy and elegant feel with intense, long and bold fruit flavors and an attractive richness on the finish. Drink over the next six years." (James Suckling 2019)
