Tim Atkin | Medium color with a little evolution at the rim. Ripe yet floral with plenty of full-bodied flavors of fig and bramble, a layer of sweet, mocha oak and good underlying structure. Slightly jammy? | 92

Simon Field | Ruby-red, with a hint of brick evolution at the rim; nose rather clumsy, maybe a touch of oxidation; both house plants and verbena, resin, and blackberries at the end of the season. Rather labored on the palate. It may be a youthful phase of lugubrious indifference; on the other hand, it may not. A suivre! | 88

Andrew Jefford | Deep, clear black-red. Fresh, sweet, and warm in scent, though soft-focus. A touch jammy, indeed. Pure, tangy, and light: attractive, simple wine, where the oak is clearly part of the appeal. | 85
