Wine Critic Reviews
Wine Enthusiast (88): The wine is structured with dark tannins and black fruits in equal measure. Weight, concentration and a smoky aftertaste give the wine a solid start in life. Drink from 2024.
Vinum Wine Magazine (15.5): Cheerful nose of fresh cherries; juicy and full in the mouth, pleasantly tart and fresh. Good restaurant wine.
