A superb elegant cabernet from a warm dry vintage. It is a vibrant purple red with aromas of black raspberry, black cherry and mulberry with soft sweet herbal notes and mild oak spice with some pencil lead. The palate is finely balanced and so very even with velvety smooth tannins and just enough acidity for balance. It is midweight and very smooth with excellent length. Drinking well now this will hold and gain in complexity for 20+ years in the cellar. Best 2024 to 2044. Tasted February 2024. Coming to Vintages Summer 2024. Score - 93.
