"A superb

Full-bodied and dry

Its wines are regarded as benchmarks for the district

Using the original Pinot Noir and Cabernet plantings

Effortless power

Such purity here with really concentrated fruit

This is a complete wine that is drinking exquisitely at the moment but has a long future ahead of it
