Overview

Michael Edwards: Agreeable touch of brûlée fruit on the nose; fresh on palate; linear definition- 16

Andrew Jefford: Dark black-red. Warm, sweet, round, and earthy, but rather generalized now, with any evident aromatic focus lost. Soft, tangy, rather featureless red wine, with a southern French cast but no obvious qualitative interest. Hard tannins- 8

Marcel Orford-Williams: Pretty good. This is fruity, with quite complex flavors. Ripe, sweet, and quite ready. Finishes sweet and long. Some finesse here, though finish is dry- 16.5
