Andrew Jefford | Dark, translucent garnet-red. Ample, darkly curranty aromas with a savory edge; just beyond reduction, as it were, but you can smell some clay-related breadth here. Deeply flavored, with some firmness and gathered force, and certainly looking for a further pause in the cellar; best yet under Barton ownership? | 88

Michael Schuster | Lightly gravelly nose; a fresh, medium-bodied wine, with a very light tannin; a gentle, crisp, ripe red-fruit flavour, and good, light length. Refreshing, lighter, basic claret. Now to 2024. | 87
