Sample
A glossy red in the glass with a savoury side to plum and nutmeg spice. The wine is a true representation of the cold 2017 vintage and is more about texture and structure than it is generous primary fruits. The continuation of the nutmeg thread is a constant to dark berry fruits, oak gives a silky texture and tannins do well to frame good length. The 17's will be ones to check back on in a decade.
