Crimson with garnet hues. Bright, lifed aromas of red currant, rosehip and raspberry develop into concentrated baked plum pudding with notes of anise, nutmeg, mace and a hint of white pepper. The soft, luscious palate is complemented by complex flavours of spiced berry compote, raspberry and red licorice that fill the mouth. An elegant style with fine, velvety tannins and balanced acidity.
Deepish red colour with a good tint of purple. The bouquet is raspberry, red cherry and sweetly ripe, quite floral and charming if straightforward and not really complex as yet. Alcohol contributes to a touch of hardness on the finish. It seems gutsier and less-fragrant than the 2017. It would reward some cellar time. (77% grenache, 19% mataro, 4% shiraz) 26 MAR 2021 Drink 2022–2033
