Expert Reviews

94 Points: Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)
"Plush, soft, dark, plummy with black olive and marzipan characters in perfume and palate. Moreish, mouth-filling, sweet fruited with a lick of blood orange acidity and a nutty, creamy finish with just a little nutty bitterness too. Gulpable stuff. Yum. It’s a ripper rendition, lots of detail and deliciousness here. Very, very worthy."

92 Points: Ned Goodwin MW (Halliday)
"Floral, mid weighted of feel, fleet of freshness and sumptuous of texture. Lilac, boysenberry, white pepper and clove, spruced long across a timbre of gentle oak and maritime saltiness. Crunchy, addictive and beautifully poised to the effect of dangerous drinkability."
