Other Reviews....
A very open and plush textured red with velvet and tile undertones. Full and layered with plums and oranges. Firm at the end. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Better in two to three years. Screw cap.

Just a hint of smoke pops up on the nose, along with red cherry and a promise of richness. More air brings something florally scented. There is much concentration and a really fine frame of tannins, this is bold with ripe, juicy cherry fruit and full of verve with very structured tannins. The vines were 20 years old, and the wine spent 16 months in 25% new French oak. Drink 2022 - 2040.

From down the (Felton) Road in Bannockburn. This has a bit of get up and go.
More energy than its 2021 stablemates, this is a wine with fine, graphite tannins, succulent, dark cherry fruit character, brined black olive notes, fennel and clove complexity. It sits succulent and low in the palate, medium weight, tight and precise. Serious feeling, needing time to unfurl and good cellaring potential.
