RATINGS

94Vinous / IWC

...beautifully defined bouquet offers perfumed black fruit laced with truffle and cedar, a touch of wild mint surfacing with time...medium-bodied palate...slightly savory black fruit layers... Highly recommended.

94James Suckling

Very attractive nose of red plums, currants, nutmeg, orange peel and chopped herbs. Medium-bodied and polished with fine-grained tannins. Excellent length. Subtly spicy.

92Wine Enthusiast

...well-balanced blend...has depth and a nose of licorice, red berries and green bell pepper mixed with cinnamon. The layered palate is full of black and red fruits, with notes of smoke and thyme flowing smoothly due to its nice acidity. Firm tannins shape a good structure.

91+ The Wine Advocate

...begins with an herbal and dusty red-fruited nose that offers graphite notes and soft brown baking spices. Medium-bodied...lively in the mouth, with balanced oak and fruit flavors that integrate seamlessly together, offering a balanced structure with fine-grained tannins and succulent acidity...

16.5+ Jancis Robinson

Smells juicy and fresh with masses of creamy red fruit and green tobacco leaf. The tannins have a sweet bitterness: gently steeped black tea leaves and tree bark.
