Michele's notes: Deep but brilliantly hued. Intense and complex aromas – briar fruits, with blackcurrant, fresh-baked brioche plus hints of lavender and fresh thyme. There’s a refreshing minerality here too, keeping the vivacious aromas in balance. With breathing dried porcini and other umami elements become apparent.
Blackberries on the palate, with vanilla oak and tangy, salty liquorice. No heaviness here, but layers of old vine flavour, with refreshing acidity, and tannins that build and lift to support the fruit. Very more-ish.
