94pts James Suckling

This delivers a stylish impression from the get-go with a really nicely focused dark berry nose and hints of fresh pastry. The palate has a smooth array of bright blackberry and plum fruits with smoothly cut tannins that layer up nice and even. Classy. Best from 2022.

94pts Wine Enthusiast

The pure red-fruit flavors of this wine shoot through the firm tannins to give freshness while allowing plenty of space for the development of the tannins. It is a wine that shows both the fruit and the structure of the vintage. Barrel Sample: 92-94 Points

92pts Wine Spectator

Enticing, with a tangy iron note to the fresh red currant and bitter cherry fruit flavors, followed by a lingering sanguine edge on the pleasantly dusty finish. Barrel Sample: 89-92 Points

Winemaker Notes

Dense red Burgundy color. The wine is straightforward and clean. Aromas and flavors of vanilla, cherry, fireplace, red fruit and hints of wood. There is a silky and creaminess on the palate and the finish is persistent and contains flavors of morello cherry.
