92 pts Vinous Media (2018, 2023 has not yet been rated but should fall in line with 2018-2020 as those were warm vintages.)
Deep bright ruby-red. Very fresh and clean on the fruity, floral nose. Boasts sneaky concentration and size to the red and blue fruit flavors, but has plenty of early appeal. Finishes long and smooth with loads of staying power. Drinking Window 2019 – 2025 - By Ian D'Agata on September 2019
