The estate’s driest site, not a problem in 2021, when there was a plentiful supply of rain. More problematic was an attack of Suzuki fly, which necessitated especially rigorous selection during the harvest usual, leading to very small yields indeed – less than 1000 bottles from 1.7 hectares (just under 6 hectolitres per hectare). But it sure is a lovely wine! Compact crushed raspberry, blackcurrant and spice flavours are framed by dense, very fine tannins and a long black finish. Although very dense, it is never heavy, and a vibrant energy keeps it flowing smoothly. Drink 2025 – 2030
