Tasting Notes

Quite intense red, good small berry red fruits, quite tightly knit, but none of the greenness and hollowness of the year, shows depth and class. Drink 2012-17. 4 stars.

Decanter Magazine

Very light nose reminiscent of putty. Lively, not dense - a bit light and green. Lots of acidity on the finish. Drink 2011-15.

Jancis Robinson

Good berry, mineral and spice character on the nose and palate. Medium body, fine tannins and clean on the finish.

James Suckling

A dark garnet colour. The nose has good fruit concentration, blackberry, violets and a touch of spice. Nice lift. The palate is full-bodied, grainy tannins, grippy with a leafy, slightly herbaceous core. But certainly harmonious, good depth and persistency with a firm grip towards the finish. Blackberry infused with tobacco and cedar. Good wine. Tasted April 2008.
