Written Notes

Incredible aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants and walnut undertones. Underbrush, hints of cedar and sweet tobacco, too. Full-bodied, very structured and tannic. Yet, so polished and very, very beautiful. Great length and structure. Beautiful to drink now, but really well-structured for aging.

The 2015 The Maiden is a gorgeous wine. Ample and generous on the palate, the 2015 offers lovely textured depth and richness. Sweet red cherry, plum, blood orange, mint and floral notes are all woven together. The incisive tannins of the year are evident, but there is more than enough pliancy to the fruit to keep things in check. Perhaps even more importantly, the 2015 has terrific freshness for the year. This is a strong showing, especially in light of the very challenging conditions.
