Jancis Robinson: Red/garnet. Nice, clean, warm, spicy fruit, good big fruit; excellent balance, fruit persists well; still very much alive and kicking on the long finish. Spicy, excellent. 17.5

Jeremy Watson: This is great. Brilliant colour, firm aromas of soft red fruits with oak tannins and rich combination of fruit, acid and tannin in the mouth with nice length. A well-structured and well-made wine. 18
