From 22-year-old vines, this was vinified using gentle extraction techniques. It has a deep ruby robe and leads with a nice intensity of aromatics of tomato leaf, black soil, dark fruit, celery and a roasted beetroot overtone. Well proportioned, it lacks a little definition now – medium acidity, extract and body, dry, with medium fine-textured tannins, a medium length and fruit intensity with black soil, leafy and minerally tones, and a medium finish. 2024-2028–IR
