“ ... a deep, ripe and classic nose of black fruit, spit-roasted game, some youthful syrah medicinal overtones, bitter chocolate, woodsmoke, lovely soil tones and (of course) a bit of youthful stemminess in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and impressively soil-driven in personality, with a firm core of fruit, ripe, well-integrated tannins and excellent length and grip on the nascently complex and very well-balanced finish. This is a great wine in the making, but as is always the case with the wines from the Champets, it will demand some extended cellaring to blossom and come fully into its own. (Drink between 2030-2080)”
