Accolades:
96/100 – James Suckling
“A very sophisticated young wine with very fine tannins that run the length of the wine. Medium-bodied. Bright and vivid. Sandalwood, flowers and redcurrants. Some subtle nutmeg and roses, too. Tight still. Better in three or four years.” – James Suckling, October 2022
Tasting Notes: Dark garnet in colour. Intense nose of red plums, wet leaves, garrigue, cedar and smoke – alongside a touch of violet. The palate is mellow yet persistent, with red fruits on the front before progressing to a savoury, earthy and mushroom-inflected mid-palate. Pleasantly long on the finish, with fine-grained, powdery tannins. Only 1,471 bottles were produced from the 2019 vintage.
