Andrew Jefford | Deep clear black-red. Oak and sweet cereal- grain notes, but a slightly cardboardy cast to this as well. Filter pads? Deeper than many of its peers, with rounded, harmonious fruit driven by green-hued acidity. A wine with qualities but lacking a little in seduction and articulacy. | 83
Anne Krebiechl | Toasty notes of oak appear first. There also is a floral overtone of peony. The palate has concentration and poise and reveals dark, ripe cherry with total crunchiness. The structure is firm; the palate is vivid and alive. This is not scared of appearing tart and revels in its own freshness and vivacity. Red and black cherry dance and leave wonderful aromatics in their wake. For adults only. | 95
Jancis Robinson | Mid- to deep crimson. Very pale rim. Rather occluded smudgy nose. Sweet edgy fruit with marked acidity. Tannins are a little rough. Good intent but not the most sophisticated. Scrawny finish but some interesting fungal flavors. 2018–22. | 87
