Wine Critic Reviews
Andreas Larsson - Tasted (87): Medium deep ruby red colour. Toasted notes, spices, crushed berries and mocha. Medium weight on the palate, fresh and balanced in a light elegant style with medium to long finish. Vintage: 2011
Falstaff (88): Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, discreet brightening at the rim, delicately smoky dark berry jam, subtle plum, fine tobacco nuances. Elegant, quite compact, present, spicy tannins, fine extract sweetness in the finish, mineral aftertaste, needs some time, slightly astringent in the finale. Vintage: 2011
