Tasting notes
Dark mahogany colour. Amazingly fresh and reverberant on the palate. Prune juice but freshness too. So clean! Not at all heavy even if there were some treacly notes. Dense with a hint of walnuts and barley sugar with a floral overlay. What a wine! Positively bracing – certainly life-affirming. (JR)

Bright orange with tawny edge. Drying slightly but with great life and lift. Racy and long. Orange peel. Transparent. Peachy and deep. An edge of burnt raisin juice. Drying slightly. (JR)
