When to drink: 2023 to 2058
Dark ruby garnet colour, opaque core, violet reflections, subtle ochre rim brightening. Delicate mix of bergamot and vanilla, crème brulée, red forest berries, light-coloured Stollwerck, dark cherries, a hint of dill betrays the American wood. Powerful and complex, fine red berry fruit, some liquorice, but also some Black Forest cherries, ripe, supporting tannins, incredibly fresh and lively, has great length and definite ageing potential. A combination of complexity and finesse.
