"Seductive blackberry pastille, boysenberry, mocca aromas with herb garden notes. Generously concentrated palate with ample dark berry fruits, some mocha, roasted walnut complexity, fine persistent al dente brambly textures and fresh long quartz-like acidity. Finishes with a grip of firm bittersweet tannins. A muscular version of Hill of Grace with lovely polish, density and flow.” Andrew Caillard MW

The best Hill of Roses I have tasted. A stunning wine, which got better and better with time open. The nose simply explodes from the glass – cassis, cocoa powder, mocha, graphite, mulberries and beefstock. The balance is so exemplary that one does not even notice it. Seamless and elegant, the tannins here are delicate silk. An astonishing wine of great length which will provide pleasure for the best part of three decades.” - Ken Gargett


The palate is seamless, with finely integrated tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of mulberries, dried herbs, graphite and pepper. It is so pure and refined with an underlying tension.” Ryan Montgomery, James Suckling.com

This is a taut, firmly structured wine whose heady notes of sandalwood, liquorice, black pepper and tamarind are interwoven with ripe bramble and blood plum fruits, all draped over sinewy tannins. The finish has phenomenal length
