Tasting Notes
"An anagram of silex, the 2022 Exils blossoms in the mouth like a comfortable bean bag you just sink into. It's succulent, and in this warm, dry vintage, the influence of the flint is gently grippy rather than the strict corridor of tension you'd normally get. This means the wine reflects its season perhaps more than its terroir. You can approach it now, but it has concentration and substance to go for at least the next five years." - Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous
