Critics Ratings

'It's a nice wine that would probably shine in isolation but seemed a little tart and green on the nose (like so many 1985s now) - even though the texture was superb. If you have a case, start to drink it!' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Jul 2015)

'Fully mature, this wine shows some pink at the edge, a sweet nose of herb-tinged cherries and black currants intermixed with dusty notes and new oak. The wine is medium-bodied, elegant, very flattering, and perfumed. It does not have the weight, depth, or dimensions of the top vintages, but is quite seductive. Anticipated maturity: Now-2005.' - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 90/100 (Jan 2003)
