Professional Reviews:

"Upfront and generously fruited, the inviting bouquet shows blackcurrant, thyme, nutmeg and smoked game characters, leading to a splendidly flavoursome palate offering supple texture and grainy tannins. Sturdy yet silky and immediately drinkable. At its best: now to 2029. 5 Stars. 93 Points." - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"A lovely fresh, ripe, almost brrody boquet of dark berries, violets and milk chocolate. There’s some natural fruit spice qualities and general earthy mineral quality. Dy with plenty of fruit weight and acidity along with a core of dark fruit flavours from boysenberry to black currant and a touch of milk chocolate. Balanced, well made, youthful and fresh. New and ready to drink from 2023 through 2027. 92 Points" - Cam Douglas Master Sommelier
