Tasting notes
A flattering wine in the making, with a velvety feel from start to finish, offering warm plum, blueberry and boysenberry fruit that cascades through the finish. Features a healthy dose of toast, but everything is integrated and the fruit will win out easily when the élevage is done. Mar 2016, James Molesworth, www.WineSpectator.com

A super velvety textured red with a freshness and coolness. Full body, ultra-balanced and a savory finish. Super. Mostly Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc. Mar 2016, www.JamesSuckling.com
A wine that will benefit from more time in barrel and bottle, such is its structure and fruit weight. Plummy, ripe and sweetly oaked with plenty of backbone, 40% new oak and refreshing acidity. Apr 2016, www.timatkin.com, Drink: 2020-2030
Very dark. Lifted, fragrant, not one of the most intense but nicely balanced. Racy and toasty. Not perhaps absolutely top rank but not forced. Apr 2016, www.JancisRobinson.com, Drink: 2022-2034
