Critics Ratings
‘Vivid red. Bright red berry, floral and mineral aromas are complicated by smoked meat and herbs. Very fresh on the palate, offering sweet red and dark berry flavors, gentle tannins and good back-end cut. There's a pinot-like precision to this wine that's really intriguing. Finishes brisk and clear.’ - Josh Raynolds, Vinous, 90/100 (Jan 2009)
