Score 91/100 · James Suckling, Jun 2021

A tight, very firm red with earth, currant, iron and stone aromas and flavors. Medium body, reserved tannins and a fresh, linear finish. Old-style Bordeaux. Drink now.

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2014-2028, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2016

Tasted blind. Dark crimson. Evolved rim. Evolved, mature, round nose, not without charm. Hint of tarmacadam and very round supple tannins until some austerity on the finish. (JR)

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2016-2028, Jancis Robinson MW, Jan 2010

Savoury, mildly toasty nose. Then very sweet and luscious. Slightly drying finish but with lots of energy. Just fades a bit fast on the end. (JR)
