Critic tasting note: "Fragrant purple flowers, rose, wild berries and a whiff of exotic spice form the nose. Elegantly structured, the firm, youthfully austere palate offers dried red cherry, cranberry compote and star anise set against tightly wound, fine-grained tannins. It's balanced, with fresh acidity. Drink 2023–2030. Kerin O’Keefe" - 93/100, Wine Enthusiast
