When to drink: 2017 to 2023
250 pickers in 2013, 100 in 2015. Pure fragrant blackcurrant aroma. Sweet, juicy and fresh and well done for such a tough vintage. Light but avoids austerity. Julia Harding MW
Shows good depth for the vintage, with tar and graphite elements running through the core of steeped plum and black currant paste, extending through the grippy finish with a singed cedar detail. Best from 2017 through 2021. 5,833 cases made.
