Crazy cool nose of dark fruits with licorice and black pepper. Full bodied, with gorgeous fruits and silky refined tannins and a long, fruity finish. This is bright and beautiful. Best ever from here. jamessuckling.com
Ebullient plum and blackberry fruit is pumped with lots of roasted spice and braised fig notes. This has a lashing of sweet toast on the finish, but the stuffing is there to soak it up. James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
Some freshness on the nose. Racy and flattering though not dense and without much tannic support. Light fine tannins. Good drink for early to mid term. jancisrobinson.com
