Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2012-2017, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Apr 2015

70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Syrah, 5% Grenache. 14 months in oak, 33% new. Juicy combination of black and red fruit on the nose. Floury tannins, good density on the mid palate and plenty of tannin too. Long, savoury, dry finish. (RH)

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2014-2020, Jancis Robinson MW, Jul 2012

70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Syrah, 5% Grenache and average yields of just 20 hl/ha apparently. Hand picked. Bright crimson. Punchy, direct and aromatic though still youthful. Sweet palate entry and with an interesting note of blue cheese(!). Very fine tannins insist on the finish.  Wears its alcohol lightly. Fine and fresh. Keep. Rather delicate. (JR)
