Andrew Jefford | Very light in color at this stage. Somewhat tired and grassy on the nose; a disappointment for the vintage. Slender and light on the palate compared to its peers—and no first wine to compare it with. But as a prospect from a fine vintage, I would avoid this wine, though it provides sound drinking in general. | 84

Michael Schuster | Mature ruby color; discreet Merlot mulberry nose; light, fresh, very light in tannin; pleasant, easy, ripe, flowing wine, straightforward, modest in scope and length. Now to 2024. | 86
