Score 91/100 · James Suckling, Apr 2025
An intense but restrained wine with aromas of earth, herbs, carob and tamarind, with slightly funky touches of game and prunes. Full-bodied, it shows fresh, almost sour flavors, lifted acidity and tight, chalky tannins on the palate. Long and savory, with a polished, cigar box aftertaste. Drink now.
