Andrew Jefford | Clear red. Rather odd Bakewell tart aromas (moist marzipan, cake crumb, and strawberry jam). A little bit soupy and jammy on the palate, too. Sweet and not at all acidic, so someone has worked hard at getting to full ripeness, but stylistically it is not exactly dream Pinot alas. | 79
Anne Krebiechl | Smoke, ripe red fruit and the nuttiness of roast chestnuts make for a welcoming olfactory trio. There also is a heady lick of vanilla. On the expressive palate, spices like nutmeg and pepper make themselves felt against lovely strawberry notes. There is resonance and balance, scope and aromatic expanse. This affords us a great, panoramic view of Pinot-ness in all its fresh ripeness. Very harmonious. | 95
Jancis Robinson | Pale evolved ruby. Very bright. Gamey, sweet nose without quite the vitality one would wish for. Sweet and licorice and a little over-made up. Shades of the Riviera in the 1920s! Hot end. 2015–19. | 87
