Critics Ratings

‘Dark crimson with an evolved rim. Notably aromatic – top ex-Lafite barrels? Delicate, light bodied but very fragrant and ready to drink. Just a slightly charred note on the end. Bone-dry finish. Tastes almost more like a classic St-Estèphe.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20 (Nov 2015)

Very dark and evolved rim. Fresh, fragrant, spring-like nose. A full spread over the palate. Zesty with a dry finish. Very classic but polished and very good. Ever so slightly green.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Aug 2007)

‘Good core of fruit, with silky tannins and a medium to long finish of licorice, smoke and berry. Very good red.’ - Wine Spectator
