Description

Wines were bought at date of release from The Wine Society which is still holding these in my duty paid reserves. Shipping to mainland UK is included in price.

Series M now has roughly equal measures of merlot and malbec, with cabernet sauvignon for structure, and just a splash of cabernet franc in 2018 (early releases were merlot-dominant and more overtly ‘new world` in expression). Significantly smaller berries in 2018 brought concentration with freshness in the best wines of the vintage, showing the remarkable finesse that comes from healthy old vines. Fine oak integration and refined tannins make this wine approachable now, in its early youth; its enticing, fleshy sweetness, and expressive plummy black fruits belie the structure to equip it for long cellaring. Drink from 2021 to 2034. 14%
