Wine Critic Reviews

James Suckling (N/A): This has a wonderful interplay of delicate aromas, showing red berries, spices and graphite. Medium- to full-bodied with well-crafted, fine-grained tannins that deftly balance the restrained richness and support the long, delicate finish. Impressive. Drink or hold.
