Nose

Rich and slightly sweet though with a balanced oakiness. Walk in the woods: apple and violet, an old log cabin in the summer heat.

Palate

Though lighter than the nose suggests this has class. Leafy, almost mossy. Pine woods, violet again and a dusty rooty quality but sufficient sweetness to add depth and complexity.

Finish

Good length. Pomegranate.

Comment

This is a real jump in quality and shows great finesse.
