Tasting Note

The 2025 season delivered excellent conditions: warm days, cool nights, and dry weather throughout ripening. Yields were low, and fruit quality was outstanding. Aromas of clove, raspberry, and orange zest lead into a savoury, spice-driven palate with silky, fine tannins. This wine is currently tightly wound and will benefit from time in bottle.

Review

"The same 1990s-planted site and the same winemaking approach: wild ferment with 20% whole bunches, 10% new oak. This is an elegantly framed release from what was a warm year, with an earlier pick yielding finesse and a savoury dimension. It’s open in fragrance, perfumed and lifted with red fruits, but there’s a cooler side, a dusting of spice, a mulchy forest floor and snapped twig element. And there's a linearity, an appealing tension rather than breadth, tannins finely composed, acidity vibrant. This promises to age well."
