Rated vintages

    Full in the mouth, this is a ripe wine, showing wood, dark plums and a firm layer of tannins. There is a good black-fruit feel, brought out by the wine's acidity. This is serious and worth aging. Drink from 2017.

  • 201088 pts

    Rich red fruits along with a stalky element give this wine weight and structure. It's on the dry side, with the fruit tannins and wood notes still dominant. Good acidity offers a bright aftertaste.

  • 200989 pts

    This is a complex wine that shows sweet berry fruits, ripe tannins and new wood flavors. It is dense and chewy while also being full of rich fruits. This is a wine for aging, although its smooth character suggests it will age relatively quickly.
