Toasty, charred oak leads off, with ripe black cherry, black currant and graphite flavors underneath. Firm, sinewy and a bit surly now, with a strong grip of tannins on the finish. Best from 2025 through 2048. 50 cases imported. — BS

This is the first wine in the range to display reductive notes and while I expect that they are largely due to the very recent bottling, I would suggest decanting this if you're going to crack a bottle in the next 12 months or so. Otherwise there is once again an attractive sleekness to the precise and vibrant medium weight flavors that brim with minerality that really comes to the fore on the impressively complex and persistent finish that is somewhat linear at present. I would expect this to flesh out with bottle age.
