Score 98/100 · James Suckling, Nov 2022
What a pretty wine with a cool, earth and strawberry character with a floral and hibiscus undertone. The color was excellent with a ruby center and a garnet edge. It’s very full and rich for this medium vintage with sweet berries, spices and sandalwood. Fine tannins with a brightness and clarity. So beautiful now.
