Andrew Jefford | Deep, clear, bright, and mature red. The scents, though, are a little tinny and varnishy. Unappealing. Dry but somewhat baked and lifeless. A low-acid example, however, if you are looking for one. Somewhere along the line, the fruit has checked out, though. | 81

Anne Krebiechl | Ripe, almost fleshy cherry fruit appears on the nose. The palate hovers between poised freshness and plump fruit and has the precision of ripe cherry and the spirity vivaciousness of kirsch. The aftertaste is full of diffuse black cherry, with just a touch of spirity heat. | 90

Jancis Robinson | Healthy garnet color. Sweet, dense fruit without much subtlety, as though ripeness rather than flavor were all. Cuts off a bit on the end. Even a bit of alcohol in evidence! Drying finish. But there is real substance and energy here. 2016–22. | 89
