Score 94/100 · Drink 2023-2033, Josh Raynolds, Sep 2019
Opaque ruby. A highly perfumed bouquet displays aromas of dark fruit liqueur, potpourri, exotic spices and smoked meat. Palate-staining black currant, cherry preserve and spicecake flavors are sharpened by a vibrant mineral flourish that brings energy and lift. Puts on weight with air and finishes extremely long and smooth, with repeating minerality and building tannic grip.

98% Syrah, 2% Viognier. 60% whole bunch. Fragrant, leathery, liquorice, anise and dark chocolate. Light black fruit – gentle intensity with soft digestible tannins. Excellent clarity of fruit. Delicate, chewy character with a bitter-herb finish. (RH)
