Critics Ratings
‘A perfumed nose of Gevrey style earth and dark berry fruit aromas leads to round, supple and delicious medium-bodied flavors that possess an attractive mouth feel and good vibrancy on the moderately long and solidly complex finish. This is a very pretty and stylish villages that, like several wines in the range, is likely to mature relatively early. Indeed, this could already be enjoyed now.’ - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com (Jan 2012)
‘Boysenberry, black currant and meaty, spicy aromas and flavors mark this beefy red. The tannins are assertive, dominating the finish, yet seem more from wood than grape, so give this time. Just a bit pinched in the end. Best from 2015 through 2030.’ - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator
‘Good full red. Very ripe, musky nose combines black raspberry, meat and leather. Slightly roasted, lush and sweet, with leather and torrefaction notes to go with the dark fruit flavors. Quite full in the mouth, and a bit warm on the back end. Probably best for drinking over the next few years.’ - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous (March 2012)
