"A similar blend but with a touch less Grenache, this spends 16 months in old oak (and 10% new oak). Spicy, almost minty seriousness on the dark fruits nose. Quite tight. The palate is structured, spicy and full with great concentration. Firm, taut and quite serious, this needs a little time to open out. Very good/excellent."
