Score 92-95/100 · FINE+RARE

Clean. Some fruit and a hint of depth. Sweet, meaty and chunky fruit in the mouth. Honest, unforced and precise. Focussed, linear. Unforced. This is very good. Joss Fowler, FINE+RARE, April 2015.

Aromas of strawberries and cherries follow through to a full body, silky tannins and a tangy finish. Fresh and clean. Linear and pretty. Purity of fruit is impressive. Drink in 2020. Feb 2017, www.jamessuckling.com
