Inside Bordeaux

2017 Aastakäik - Degusteeritud: Aug 2022
A muscular, powerful wine, even at five years old this is still in its primary fruit phase. Give it a good few hours to unwind in a carafe if drinking soon, and enjoy the burst of ripe fig and blackberry flavours, dried herbs, confident tannic hold and crushed rock minerality. Winemaker David Cilli and director Will Harlan. The vines range in age from 7 to 50 years old, on a volcanic mountain site covering 32ha, aged in large-sized oak casks for three years, with a further year in bottle before release. Heavy bottle.
