Jamie Goode | Very mature. Some minty notes alongside malt, earth, and leather characters, as well as some strawberry and plum fruity notes in the background. Still alive, and with some mellow harmony on the palate, but reaching the end of its life. Good if you are a fan of this generic old red wine character. | 87

Peter Richards | Notable age is evident here, both to smell and to taste. Roasted pepper, tobacco, and dried fruit on the nose. Complex, refined, elegant yet expressive. Lovely distinctive Cabernet class and character. Fully mature, great energy still, drinking very well now. Tannins are fine, elegantly drying. Flavors layered and savory. Delicious! | 95

David Williams | Gracefully mature with a spark of freshness still there amid the attractively grippy tannins and savory soy, leather, and a touch of balsamic. Great length, aromatic complexity, real intrigue and pleasure. | 94
