Critics Ratings

'Tightly coiled for now, with pepper, garrigue and briar notes wrapped around a core of steeped cherry, damson plum and blackberry fruit. Cedar and sandalwood accents line the finish, revealing a hint of blood orange. This needs some cellaring to unwind fully. Best from 2016 through 2026.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Feb 2014)

'15% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah, 5% Cinsault/Clairette/Counoise plus Grenache Noir. Muddy colour. Light to mid ruby. Round, jewelly sweet. Very forward! Very different from the norm - much more transparent and fresh. A bit wild and woolly with rose-petal jam flavours. Plus a bit of fine tannin on the end. Throat warming.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Nov 2012)
