Critics Ratings

'More herbal and leafy than the 2015, and that gives it a lovely flash of freshness on the palate. Luxurious, svelte and lengthy.' - Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Sep 2018)

'There are two Ms in the blend here - dominant Malbec and Merlot - with some Cabernet Sauvignon too. The cooler vintage has produced a wine with more freshness than can be the case here. Smooth, polished and aromatic, it's stylishly oaked, complex and refined with black fig, violet and graphite notes and a long, tapering finish. Drink: 2017-24.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2016, 94/100

'I much prefer the nose on the 2013 than the 2012: much more control and finesse, great detail and fine minerality developing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with the Malbec very expressive and lending to Argentinean flair. There is good structure here, touches of spice sprinkled over the finish and a little surliness that will be abraded by time in bottle. Give it 4-5 years.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 91/100 (Nov 2015)
