(2025) This is a 'field blend' of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, co-planted in the same vineyard. It's not clear whether the two varieties were picked at the same time, but the result is a fruit-forward buoyant and vividly purple wine that despite 12 months in neutral, older barrels, offers clear and juicy fruit to the fore with just a subtle graphite background. Blackcurrant is the driver on nose and palate, again supple and freshly juicy, with a firm axis of tannin and acidity adding to the impression of clarity, verging on strictness.
