Roasted meats and pan juices bring a savoury edge, while baking spices and red apple peel add further layers. Oak talks here, bringing a noticeable punch that sits prominently alongside the fruit.
There’s muscle and bulk through the palate, although it doesn’t quite soften as hoped. Still, there’s some welcome acid brightness that keeps things moving before a little acid crunch appears on the close. In all, it's a robust style with plenty of oak in the conversation and some serious weight behind it.
