DECANTER 'Milk chocolate, violets, roses, lots of vibrant floral aromas with blue and red fruit. Super-fresh and vibrant, a crystalline and finessed aspect to the blueberry, red cherry and damson fruit while remaining quite fine in terms of texture. Focused, not so rich or plush, silky, with the limestone giving strictness but also precision, a sense of purity and salty, slate-like minerality alongside clove, cinnamon and liquorice. Mouthwatering acidity brings vibrancy and overall this is round, layered and well balanced with energy and focus. Consistent quality in 2020 with a touch of the Trolong shine and sparkle. Ageing: 60% one-year-old barrels, 40% stainless steel tank for 14 months. This is worth stocking up on.'
