A wine that is made exclusively for use in Simon Denton's restaurants, and I'll start out by saying it's not often a restaurant exclusive shows this much class and quality.

The wine is a medium red in the glass, the nose slowly unfolds in the glass giving lifted spices, sappy cherry, a touch of undergrowth and superbly handled oak.

The palate is layered and complex, with a backbone of sinewy cherry fruit from which dense cherry and integrated cinnamon and clove spices radiate.

The finish has excellent length, with this release sure to reward a few years in the cellar.
