    A ripe wine, this is full in the mouth and full of fruit. Apricots and lemons go well together for a rich while crisp mouthful. The wood aging over 18 months only shows fleetingly, leaving fruit as the main thrust. It finishes with plenty of fresh acidity. Drink from 2016.

    With a definite wood aging character, the wine is ripe and rounded. It also has an attractively steely minerality that gives texture to the ripe pear and peach flavors. The aftertaste is more citrus.
