Critics Ratings

'A restrained, indeed even reticent nose is presently quite compact with only grudging notes of cassis, floral and warm earth visible. There is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the middle weight plus flavors that possess plenty of size, weight and power before culminating in a longer, serious and driving finish. For such a big wine this should drink reasonably well after only 5 to 7 years of bottle age.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 92-94/100 (Apr 2014)

'Closed nose, but the purity and balance is all there. Excellent core fruit, as well - really compact and intense.' - Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (Jan 2014)
