Wine Critic Reviews
Wine Enthusiast (93): Classic varietal aromas of ripe black-skinned berry, leather and underbrush lead the way. On the firm, savory palate, fine-grained tannins accompany ripe Marasca cherry, licorice and nutmeg. Drink 2022–2032. (2015 Vintage)
James Suckling (93): This has an earthy, leathery nose with dried cherries, walnuts and hints of undergrowth and crushed stones. The medium- to full-bodied palate starts off structured and a little chewy, but opens up with a juicy flow and vivid acidity, leading to a smooth, lightly fluid finish. Drink or hold. (2016 Vintage)
