Overview

Jancis Robinson: Ruby/red. Slightly ‘off’, wet-barrels. Decent upfront fruit and some good oaky notes, but the austerity dominates. If this is a cask sample then there is hope, otherwise disappointing, with a ‘soapy’ finish. 14

Jeremy Watson: Good and characterful; will yield a good food wine. 16
