Drink 2013–2024
Blended of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Malbec and matured in French oak barriques for 18 months, the 2009 Heytesbury displays a very deep garnet-purple color and gives pronounced notes of creme de cassis, black cherry compote, warm red plums and macerated blackberries over lavender, Provence herbs, anise, black pepper and cinnamon stick plus a whiff of cedar. Well structured with crisp acid and a firm level of finely grained tannins, it fills the mouth with primary berry and spice flavors at this youthful stage, finishing long and peppery. Consider drinking this 2013 to 2024+.
