RATINGS

98Vinous / IWC

Expansive, spice- and mineral-accented aromas of black raspberry, cherry and blueberry, along with suggestions of exotic spices, succulent herbs and lavender oil. Stains the palate with intense red fruit, spicecake, floral pastille and freshly turned earth flavors, showing a compelling blend of power and delicacy. Displays fine clarity and vibrant cut and finishes extremely long and precise, with supple tannins and resonating spice and floral notes.

95James Suckling

A beautiful wine with dried strawberries and crushed salt. Clay. Terra cotta. Red salt. Medium body. Tight and firm. Flavorful finish. Solid and balanced garnacha.
