Production Details The exact-vintage importer specification says approximately 12 months in French oak with 30% new barrels. Its reproduced 2023 reviews agree on 50% whole-bunch fermentation, but Jasper Morris describes the two barrels as both new, conflicting with the separate 30%-new specification.
Tasting Notes Neal Martin, January 2025: white pepper, tertiary and autumn-leaf aromas; ripe blood orange, grainy texture and slight reduction. Jasper Morris, tasted December 2024: refined raspberry and alpine strawberry, with the stems adding lift.

Production Details The 2022 was fermented with 100% whole bunches. Jasper Morris described one new 400-litre barrel, and William Kelley likewise reported a single 400-litre barrel; Neal Martin instead reported two barrels. The barrel-count disagreement is retained unresolved.
Tasting Notes William Kelley, January 2024: rose petals, raspberries, baking spices and blood orange; fleshy, supple and mineral. Neal Martin, January 2024: darker fruit, vibrant palate, fine edgy tannins, plush texture and fig jam on the lingering finish.
