J.M Wine Spectator comment: "A robust young wine, bursting with plum paste flavors dark and boysenberry compote, supported by racy notes of licorice and fruitcake. The lively aftertaste has a hint of barnacle and a touch of tar, giving this wine energy and power throughout the finale. Best from 2023 to 2038.."✨
