The extended age shows dried apples, pears and white flowers. Full-bodied with loads of fruit and phenolics that frame it nicely and give it length and polish. A waxy, lemon curd sense to this. Long, flavorful and very, very textured. JS
The palate is also initially closed but is flavour-packed enough to overcome the flinty edges as very ripe flavours of tangelo, mango and peach twirl around the tongue, driven by a deep-pitched, mineral acidity and notably grippy phenolics (no doubt emphasised by the reduction). There is clearly power and density here, even if the medium-sweet finish is currently slightly clipped. BC
