Score 17.5/20 · Drink 2019-2026, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2021

Still quite a deep blackish garnet. Strongly perfumed with some obvious evolution. At a pretty perfect point of its evolution for current drinking although there is sufficient fine tannin underneath the impressive fruit to give confidence that there is no desperate hurry to drink this. Crunchy impression with a bit more obvious fruit than some vintages. The opposite of flashy. Long. (JR)

Destemmed. Fermented in 50-hl oak vats, then aged in barriques, 30% new, for just over a year. Deep, glowing crimson. Savoury, dark and spicy. Ripe cherries, fabulous fruit quality but not simple. Deep and long and just a little chewy but rounded. (JH)
