FINE+RARE, Apr 2015

Very pure on the nose with a hint of cool cream. Clean. Very correct, very precise. Lovely in the mouth. Cool sweet St Emilion fruit. No push: there is nothing wrong with this at all. Lovely. Balanced. Excellent.

Ripe but brightly defined, with damson plum, violet and bitter cherry notes, backed by a lively sanguine hint. The racy finish shows some flashy aspects, giving this good range.—J.M. Wine Spectator, April 2015.

Intense aromas of minerals, chalk, bright cherries and stones. Full-bodied, tight and silky; very linear. Like a straight shot. Give it three to four years to soften. Vibrant is the word. Feb 2017, www.jamessuckling.com
