Reviews
"Nicely done in the fizz zone here. It shows complex scents of berries, brioche, halva and nougat, while the palate is creamy in texture yet vigorous in bead. Layers of flavour suggest good autolysis work, while the finish is a star burst of grapefruity acidity. Lots going on."

“Pretty but substantial. Floral aromatics meet macerated red/black cherry flavours. Spice adds light to the shade. Neat as a pin but savoury spice is given plenty of rein. In a very good place.”
