Bentrock is on less-exposed gentle slopes at 500-700 feet asl, and this is aged with a little more (40%) new French oak. There is a step up in concentration, breadth, and richness, showing more ample and exotic fruit thanks to the radiating effect of the galet-like stones and slate topsoil. Wonderfully fresh, textured, and complex with a mouthwatering salinity on the long finish.
