    Jammy, overripe fruit does not help this wine. Its soft tannins and acidity provide some pleasure, but that clumsy fruit gets in the way.

    While this wine is still dense and tannic, it also has great layers of blackberry and black plum fruits that give richness. So although it is structured, it is also full and ripe, hinting at a delicious, generous future. Drink from 2018.

    With aromas dominated by minty new wood, this is a modern style of wine, the wood on the palate very dominant. There is enough black currant fruit to promise a rounding out of what at the moment is a dry, densely structured wine. Keep for 4–5 years.
