International Wine Report: 96 Points, Sourced from venerable vines averaging four decades in age, this wine showcases an extraordinary depth of character. It pours an inky purple, exuding aromas of crushed graphite, wild blueberry, and warm autumnal spices. The palate reveals an opulent interplay of black cherry, dark cocoa, and a savory undertone reminiscent of dried tomato leaf. Subtle nuances of new French oak weave seamlessly with the fruit, creating a balance that is both refined and powerful. The tannins are polished yet assertive, providing structure while contributing to an enduring, velvety finish. This one needs a few years to come together before enjoying. Highly recommended. Vinous: 95 Points,The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Old Vines opens with a mentholated air, mixing crushed chalk and stone dust with dried roses, lavender pastille, white pepper and plums. This is velvety smooth and elegant in feel, with masses of ripe red and blue fruits that envelop the palate, complemented by notes of sweet spice and dark chocolate. The 2022 slowly melts away from the senses, glycerol in feel, leaving sweet tannins and a balsamic tinge that fades slowly. Wow. 95 POINTS - Owen Bargreen: The 2022 ‘Old Vines’ is another fabulous edition of this wine and comes from vines that average for years old. Asian spices and black tea mark the nose alongside wild huckleberry and shades of red bell pepper giving this a light herbal edge. The palate is full-bodied and filled with nerve and weight. Give this beauty another year to settle. Drink 2025-2040 Decanter: 94 Points, A smoked cedar plank, evergreen bough and a touch of saline minerality frame a melange of black fruit aromas.
