Tasting Note

A wine of immense power defined by a gripping, 'Perrières-esque' tension. Succulent yellow plum and stone fruit are framed by a high-tensile mineral streak. Tightly wound and persistent, its multi-layered intensity is currently held in reserve, requiring patience or decanting to fully unfurl its formidable energy
