Tasting Notes

Good solid colour, quite fleshy and spicy fruit, good length and good expression, but lacks a bit of complexity and depth. Drink 2012-17. 4 stars.

Decanter Magazine

Dark crimson. Serious nose (Julia found the meatiness almost brett-y) and quite gentle black fruits on the palate. Pretty dry finish after rather a sweet start. A fruity core. Drink 2012-16.

Jancis Robinson

Soft and round, with lovely texture. Medium - to full-bodied, with berry, currant and chocolate flavors and a long, caressing finish. Delicious already.
