Opaque ruby in colour the nose is almost crystalline in its purity with a bright red incense
perfume, almost eerie in its delicacy and profundity. The palate is silkily (that word again) sweet, supple and seductive with a dense but magically weightless, effortless concentration. Linear in its form, this is an elegant, rich wine, beautifully balanced and long. Really lovely.
"An outstanding wine in 2012, from a property that has produced many legendary vintages in a long and distinguished history."
