2024 Buckboard Durif

Tasting Notes

• Colour
  Best enjoyed now while youthful and radiant.
• Aroma
  The aroma is intense and brooding, with a deep, enveloping tapestry of dark fruit. Ripe black cherry, plum cake, and treacle, woven with layers of toasty oak, roasted coffee, and warming sweet spice
• Palate
  On the palate, the wine is unapologetically bold, delivering a full-bodied, opulent experience. The dense, weighty fruit commands attention, offering unctuous dark berry flavours seamlessly intertwined with smoky, chocolate oak. Robust, native tannins provide a muscular backbone, lending structure and balance to this powerhouse Durif. The finish is long, generous, and dry, leaving a lasting impression of concentrated fruit and lingering depth.
• Cellaring
  The 2024 Buckboard Durif is drinkable now but promises exceptional cellaring potential for a decade or more.
