Expert Review:
Sam Kim- 91 points, Attractively fruited and immediately appealing, the bouquet shows sweet plum, toasted nut, mushroom and mixed spice aromas, leading to a succulent palate displaying elegant weight and supple mouthfeel. It's smooth and lingering with youthful tasty flavours. At its best: now to 2024.
