Critics Ratings

‘The 2008 Pintia has a fragrant bouquet with scents of dark plum, mulberry and fresh cherry, the new oak neatly folded into the fruit profile. The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy, silky smooth entry. The tannins here are very fine with dark cherries, a touch of sloe and spices that become more pronounced toward the focused finish. This is perhaps the most feminine 2008 so far – less sexy than the 2007 but still seductive.’ - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 95/100 (Apr 2013)

Savour and richness. Sweetness and saltiness. Impressive. But hefty.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16+/20 (Mar 2015)
