Score 95/100 · James Suckling, Mar 2018

This is really fine and beautiful with a dark-berry, cedar, mahogany and chocolate character. Medium to full body, silky tannins and a pretty finish. Really impressive for the vintage. Drink or hold.

Score 93/100 · Drink 2015-2025, Robert Parker, Aug 2015

Offering cedary notes with some hints of black olive tapenade, grilled meats, spice box and wood with black and red currants, this wine seems fully mature, lusty, rich and undeniably a major success in this vintage. The tannins are largely resolved and the wine is drinking beautifully, so there is no reason to defer your gratification for this wine. Drink now through 2025.

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2007-2013, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2009

Mid crimson. Sweet, rather luscious nose. Quite a bit of alcohol sticks out and it's a little dusty but there's certainly fleshy pleasure to be had here. Grainy, slightly hot finish. But ready and giving pleasure.  (JR)
