Happy New Year Greetings Johan, I hope you are well and looking forward to your new arrival - how exciting! I first tasted this wonderful wine at our get together before the Winter Tasting Tour in Manchester in November 2019, which seems like an incredibly long time ago with no tasting tours in 2020. It was so interesting learning about your Old Vine wines and I found this one especially delicious. I wanted a special red to accompany my steak on Christmas Eve and my turkey dinner with all the trimmings on Christmas Day. This wine was perfect as it is complex and interesting, with perfume rather than power, which made it a great match for both my meals. I wish you, Sofie, Matteo, Maxime (and your impending new arrival) a peaceful, healthy and prosperous 2021, and I look forward to seeing you again on tour soon.
You and Sarah
