98 TA "This sits somewhere between the exoticism of the 2009 and the acidity and tension of the 2010. There’s a hint of gun-flint on the nose, combined with subtle vanilla oak, stone fruit and a touch of tropical fruit. The wine is classically proportioned: rich and full flavoured, with well-integrated oak and a glittering seam of fresh acidity running beneath."
