" Quite a rich, lifted fruity nose: basketfuls of brambly fruits, sweet vanilla oak and a shot of spice. Good mouth entry and well-judged oak, which is unobtrusive and supportive. The acid/fruit balance is good, giving freshness and lift in the mouth. There are some concentrated date and fig notes at the centre of the fresh fruit, giving a nice chewy character. Medium-weight and nice satisfying finish. "
