Jamie Goode | Blackcurrant fruit on the nose, with just a hint of earthy development and a twist of swimming pool. Good concentration on the palate, with dense, grippy blackcurrant and blackberry fruit. This wine shows focus and intensity, with very ripe fruit but also some structure. | 90
Peter Richards | Bright, puppyish enthusiasm right from the first impression. Tons of bright cherry fruit and creamy notes. Somewhat hollow on the mid-palate. Nonetheless, it has a gravity and persistence that may yet turn this around. For now, a slow burn. | 88
David Williams | Very bright and focused on both the nose and the palate, with elegant, fresh blackcurrant and black-cherry fruit, and very fine and appetizing tannins; great depth but a lift and raciness, too, and lots of life from the balancing acidity. Refined, modern Argentine fine wine. | 94
