Tasting Notes

A giant of minerality with enormous structure, this also delights you with the stunningly ripe apricot and pineapple fruit that’s wrapped around its dense core. This will surely only get better for many years to come, as it slowly reveals its deep riches. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but better from 2023.

James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, June 2021

Indice 1. Bright gold in colour. Mineral and brooding, a little reticent initially but slowly unfurling to reveal honeyed citrus and savoury spice. The palate is sharp as a tack, acidity pinning each element in place as fruit and spice build around the muscular, driven structure. This is vibrant and so youthful, but the intensity only builds towards the finish, which is long and very focused. A wine of great potential.
