    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Dark but crisp, clear fruits. Notes of black cherry and bramble with a salty, mineral undertow. The fruit is clenched by a powerful but rounded tannic grip. Bags of intensity, character and energy. As ever a minimum of 90% whole bunch fermentation was used to keep the wine as fresh as possible. A blend of top-quality vineyards across the estate including Tupin and Viaillere, all fermented with whole bunches and aged in large demi-muid casks, a maximum of 10% of which are new.

    Critic Reviews

    Josh Raynolds,
    Vinous
    Saturated ruby. Highly perfumed aromas of ripe dark berries, cherry, olive and pungent flowers are sharpened by a suggestion of black pepper. Supple and appealingly sweet, offering concentrated black raspberry, cherry-cola and violet pastille flavors and a suggestion of star anise. Finishes pliant, sweet and focused on the penetrating finish, showing smooth tannins and excellent tenacity.
