95 | Subdued nose. More generous on the palate, which offers a seamless texture and juicy acidity. Vibrant expression with a refreshing character.
95 | Deep colour, cedar aroma, full-bodied and firmly structured but not harsh or astringent. Cigar box character is starting to appear. Very good indeed.
96 | Fragrant and attractive bouquet of cassis, redcurrant, cedar and cigar box. Bright and lively with beautiful freshness and percussion. Ripe and fine-grained backbone of tannins offering excellent support. Finishes long with layers of complexity and superb persistence. Impeccable balance and poise.
96 | Really lovely. Despite the high alcohol, the wine manages to retain a degree of freshness and vitality. Still super youthful, it has precision and structure. Black liquorice. The tannins are high in volume but very finely grained and polished. Smart oak. Great length.
