Lovely follow-up to the beautiful 2004. Packed with sweet fruit flavour – aniseed, raspberry, blueberry – and lifted to further dimensions by exotic notes of graphite, cedar and toast. Lots of brightness and oomph. Fruity, ripe, flavoursome tannins. A touch less evolved, and raw, than was the 2004 at this early stage of its life, which augurs well for the future. This is another beautiful example of the rich, sweet flavour grown out of the Battely estate vineyard. Drink: 2008-2015. 93 points." Campbell Mattinson - The Winefront
