Maturation: After the wine spends the winter in concrete tanks, at the end of June, it’s then left to age for two years in big French oak barrels. The ageing process then continues for another year in bottle.

"Fresh red fruit with some poached-pear and fig-like edges. Medium-to-full-bodied with lots of flavour, fine and firm tannins and a long finish with dates and dried figs. Delicious, almost exotic character to this.  Drink from 2022." - James Suckling
