Ledson always makes this bottle a special one in their portfolio, avoiding any dumbing down for the masses and staying classy from start to finish. This vintage is no different, showing richness on the entry, tangy berry and pomegranate fruit, well folded fall spice and distinct white and black pepper notes. Fairly priced for what you get, it’s worth a splurge. A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Sommelier Challenge International Wine Competition.
