Critics Ratings

'Deep smudgy crimson. Sweetly oaky and spiced on the nose. Lots of lovely mature dark-red fruit. Chewy, deep and full of fruit right to the finish, still showing quite a bit of oak.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5+/20 (Feb 2020)

'Deliciously tarry from the start, with a cauldron of steeped blackberry, boysenberry and pastis-soaked plum fruit melded to well-roasted apple wood and graphite notes. Intense and grippy, showing purity and polish. Should benefit from mid-term cellaring. Best from 2016 through 2030.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Mar 2013)

'Firm and tannic, while there are also sweet berry fruits and black currant flavors. The acidity is important.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 91/100 (Jun 2011)
