Currants, dried flowers, lemon zest and sliced chilis on the nose. Firm and tight-knit tannins provide excellent structure here. Bright, tight and medium-bodied. Try from 2025.

Georgina Hindle - Decanter
Deep and heady nose, then so light, vibrant and sweet on the palate. Mouthwatering acidity with fruit just shy of being high-toned, the freshLy picked strawberry, raspberry leaf and blackcurrant all bouncy and to the fore, while the silky tannins gently give a frame that slowly expands and widens. Backbone and structure from the fruit, a driving sensation and sense of intent with a hint of wood and spice on the finish, just stopping short of being rustic. Appealing Pomerol character and style with a long life ahead.

Roger Voss - Wine Enthusiast
With 85% Merlot, this wine has weight and density. Black fruit and polished-leather aromas show well, and introduce the blackberry and black-currant flavors. It is fruity, while also structured. Drink from 2027

Peter Moser - Falstaff
Intense ruby, discreet purple rim. Red berries, fresh cherries, hints of tangerines and nougat. Medium-bodied, ripe plums, fine-grained tannins, mineral-salty finish.
