James Suckling

Complex nose of sweet, dark violets, dried cherries and leafy lightness. A bit austere on both the nose and palate, with firm dusty tannins, crisp acidity, a full body and a thick, extracted finish reminiscent of violets and cherries. A powerful wine for the long haul. Best after 10 years.

Gary Walsh - The Wine Front

Neive. Cherry, coffee bean, a tea and rose perfume, some biscuit spice and aniseed. It’s fresh, red fruited, has a nutty sort of flavour, with a light stony grip to tannin, balanced but fresh acidity, and a spicy finish of good length. Quite modern and polished in presentation, though the fruit is good. A little firm and grainy to close. Needs some time. Better later.

Falstaff

Bright, elegantly shiny ruby red. Still quite closed on the nose, youthful, with hints of sour cherry, blackberry and violet. Initially supple on the palate, then with gripping tannins, backed by fresh fruit, needs time, but with great certain ageing potential.
