From magnum in 2010, a marvellous, vivacious, vibrant bouquet that bounces out at you.  Almost heady blackcurrant leaves.  Extraordinary, piercing intensity – cuts like a knife.  Great, sweet, strawberry fruit on the palate.  A massive fruit-bowl of a wine.  Blackcurrant wine gums.  Sheer heaven.  Just lingers forever with its red and black fruit flavours and silky texture.  Cassis and coffee – and pure bliss.  Breed in liquid form.  Serena Sutcliffe, MW
