Alex Hunt | This is very evolved and savory, which in itself is worrying for a wine under four years old, but I must confess to liking the gamey, tomatoey direction it’s taken. The palate is rather pinched, and there’s little in the way of length, but as an impression of mature Pinot, it’s not bad. | 84

Andrew Jefford | Deep, clear mid-red. Slightly strange toffee or popcorn scents, with a resinous, varnishy undertow; not inviting. Loose and unattractive on the palate, lacking purity and lift. | 74

Anthony Rose | Youthful bright ruby in color. An intriguing nose mingling balsamic and vanilla-oak spicy notes with strawberry jam, elegantly styled ripe, sweet, red-berry fruits framed by polished, spicy oak in a really poised, stylish, and still vigorously youthful Pinot, with fine balsamic and spicy notes to the attractively evolved richness of fruit, whose texture and freshness are beautifully balanced. | 92
