Tasting note

This has a terrific nose that captures good 'pinosity' - with ripe cranberry/cherry fruit, herbs, cinnamon, smoke, dried herbs and earthy notes. This is less obviously fruity than many. They went to natural fermentation with Latitude and longer oak with only 30% new. It's mid-weight, slightly hefty with a dry, fairly tannic, earthy - in fact more Burgundian. I would age it a year or two. The length is very good to excellent. Best 2014 to 2018. Score - 90. (David Lawrason, winealign.com, May 6, 2014)
