On skins for 107 days in amphora. Maraschino cherry, dried rose petals, violet, lavender, sweet spice, flavours and scents in synch. A prettiness here, other-worldly and outside the sect of Cullen staunchness and precision. A little looser knit though tannins are ripe, pure and perfect. Such a wonderful wine. Pinot-like I wrote some time before, and again that comes to mind.

JAMES HALLIDAY : 98 Points

Hand-picked, wild-fermented in terracotta amphorae, then pressed to French barriques (66% new) for a further 6 months. The only addition was minimal SO2, biodynamic principles followed throughout. The light crimson colour is deceptive, as is the light to medium-bodied palate. The bouquet is ultra-fragrant, the aromas and flavours locked into red fruits, cassis and gentle but persistent tannins. Utterly delicious.
