A big ripe ‘slurpy’ wine in excellent condition and ready for drinking now. Bitumen notes to the nose and intense fruit flavours.

An aged velvety smooth style holding together very well for a 9 year-old. Has fruit cake like characters layered with dusty/leafy oak. A wine with great balance, intensity and length.

Still an amazingly fresh wine with powerful dark fruit aromas – no aged characters showing yet. Palate is an elegant seamless balance of blackcurrants, creamy oak and soft tannins.

Very toasty yeasty complexity of aromas and some hugely powerful flavours and yet it exhibits great elegance and restraint. “It’s very femminine”, thought one judge.

Lovely light fruit fragrances with floral overtones. Good depth and length of sweet red fruit flavours with excellent yeasty characters. “A very good wine”, said one judge.

Another very elegant yet rich style showing excellent complexity on the nose with layers of minerally citrussy aromas and lovely flavours of citrus and brioche.

A rich, complex and inviting champagne with a broad developed base showing green fruit overtones and beautiful use of autolysis.
