Score 93/100 · Drink 2026-2034, Josh Raynolds, Dec 2022
Saturated violet color. Vibrant, spice-tinged dark berry, cherry, potpourri and licorice aromas are sharpened by a smoky mineral flourish. Fresh blackberry and bitter cherry flavors become sweeter with air and show a salty olive nuance on the back half. Well-delineated and energetic in style, finishing spicy and quite long, with gently chewy tannins and resonating florality. 50% whole clusters.

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2022-2026, Jancis Robinson MW, Nov 2021
Barrel-fermented blend of Marsanne and Roussanne, 15% new oak. Nervy and exciting with the new-oak element subtly integrated. Slightly reductive but not excessively so. Intriguingly pungent. (JR)
