RATINGS

90Vinous / IWC

...crisp, cedar and sous-bois scented bouquet that opens nicely with aeration: blackberry and raspberry follow suit...palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, moderate depth, more red fruit in situ compared to its Margaux peers, supple in the mouth with a cohesive, quite saline finish.

88-90James Suckling

A red with silky tannins and there's a pleasant core of fruit. Medium body. Medium finish.

15.5Jancis Robinson

Round and plush on the nose. Easy and sweet and nicely balanced.
