Tasting Notes

Cool, ultra-fresh and very pure aromas are equally restrained while displaying notes of essence of spiced red cherry, raspberry and lavender. The lilting and wonderfully refined flavors are not particularly dense but there is fine depth and minerality that slowly becomes more apparent on the slightly raspy and warm finale. This youthfully austere effort will need a few years of bottle age to smooth out the backend texture, but it should be worth the wait as this is really quite pretty.

Bright clean purple colour with a chiselled nose, which is very Cras in style. Great intensity, so clean and stylish, red to black cherry, then some rather grainy tannins, which will need time to integrate. 20% stems have been incorporated. Tasted Dec 2020.
