Jamie Goode | Brooding nose of blackcurrant fruit with some attractive spicy notes. The palate combines sweet fruit with good structure, and notes of olive and vanilla. This wine has a lovely freshness to it, and the structure suggests it could develop over the mid-term. The fruit is already luscious and ripe. | 91

Andrew Jefford | Dark, near-saturated red-black. Sweet, warm curranty fruits, with some toffeed sweetness in which oak plays a role; loose and soft-contoured aromas, but not unattractive. Bright, rather lurid and obvious fruits on the palate, with prominent acidity and some sweetness both from the ripeness of the fruits and the faintly toffeed style. Drinkable and engaging nonetheless. | 85

David Williams | Softly appealing Cabernet fruit: easy, plump, no hard edges, a smoothly generous style with soft cassis fruit; a little soft-focus, a little lacking in energy and drive. | 87
