Gary Walsh, The WineFront
The dust has settled now, and it’s pretty clear that 2015 was an excellent vintage. In some cases, better than 2016, though that’s probably not news. Ripe plum and cherry, liquorice, dried rose and an earth/tar thing. It’s a brooding wine, but fresh too, with a distinct ‘mineral’ character, rich and fleshy ironstone tannin, a lavish chewiness, and huge finish offering hazelnut and and spice, and more of that liquorice richness. Intense. Outstanding.
