This is tightly curled in its youth, but its beauty can already be seen. Feminine, complex and perfumed, this speaks of the soil it was grown in and the history of the gnarly vines. Intensity paired with timeless elegance. The fruit sits in the savoury spectrum of sundried tomato, barberries, red apple skin, forest floor and she-oak needles, alongside smoky sage, sea lavender, native rosemary, salted plum and dried nori. The fruit is woven with a thread of graphite, while the fine oak is only lightly seasoned and will settle with time. So much generosity of expression on the palate. Supple, the tannins are firm yet malleable and finely chewable. The structure is superb. A deeply expressive wine that is sure of itself. This is couture. Dry-grown vines, Houghton Clone, planted in 1975.
