Winemaker notes
2022: This wine reveals intense red fruits, accompanied by a subtle saline note and a hint of white pepper. The palate offers a superb and powerful flow of ripe fruit.
2020
Burghound 91-93♥: Bright, ripe and expressive aromas are comprised by notes of lavender, anise, crushed herb and pretty red currant scents. The succulent, fleshy and seductively textured flavors possess fine mid-palate density before terminating in a youthfully austere, clean and sneak long finish that isn't quite as mineral-driven.
2021
Burghound 90-93♥: An appealingly fresh if restrained nose grudgingly offers up aromas of red berry fruit along with discreet notes of herbal tea, soft earth and a floral top note. There is a discreet minerality on the refined middleweight flavors that culminate in a pure, dusty and mildly austere finish. This is lovely effort is well-balanced and sufficiently structured to repay a decade plus of cellaring.
2022
Burghound 91-93♥: Moderate reduction masks everything but subtle floral nuances. On the palate the impression of the middleweight flavors is refined and pure with that beguiling sense of underlying tension suffusing the linear, firm and sneaky long finish that is shaped by dense but fine-grained tannins. This is also quite lovely and understated in style.
