“Pretty nose of strawberries, hazelnuts, vanilla and neroli. It’s creamy and full-bodied, with fine, polished tannins. Lovely balance. A little tight at the end. Try in 2026.”

James Suckling 92/100 – Vintage 2019

“Pleasantly nutty red-berry character to the nose, together with a light caramel-like note. Medium to full body with a fairly lax palate at first. Then some firm tannin takes hold, yet the easy fruit pushes on. Not overly complex, but should even out into an nice drinker by 2023.” James Suckling 92/100 (Vintage 2018)
