Great result for the vintage. Has hot, brandied, salty characters but lots of fleshy, pippy fruit through its core, and enough fruit attachment to the tannins to bear it well. This is a ripping result. Saltbush characters concern me a little but there's so much punchy, grunty fruit here that it's impossible not to admire it. Drink: 2015-2025. 93 points.
