Andrew Jefford | Clear pale red. Sweet, fresh, and juicy, but just a little high-toned and varnishy. It has that character on the palate, too, but the sweet, waltzy fruit carries it well, and I rather fancy drinking this for lunch. Not quite a serious contender but has some winning qualities. | 88
Anne Krebiechl | Dark bramble with its ripe fruit, and leafiness plays on the nose. The slightest touch of vanilla enriches the fruit. The palate seems unforced but dense. There is almost a wild streak of forest fruit and undergrowth on the mid-palate, tender and gentle, with structure from acid rather than tannin. At its core is a treasure chest of aromatic, pure red fruit that tempts you to explore. Allow yourself to be drawn in. Lovely and lasting. | 95+
Jancis Robinson | Mid-ruby. Sweet, mushroomy nose. Easy to like. Flattering, even if without the vitality of some. Neat and well balanced. Fairly light but persistent. 2016–25. | 89
