Score 16/20 · Drink 2005-2018, Jancis Robinson MW, May 2002
Deep brick colour that is healthy but quite aged. Broad, simple flavours of warm bricks. Very, very ripe and mouthfilling to begin with but there is not much underneath. Some tannins remain but the wine is relatively simple and I'm not convinced it will improve that much. Brawny rather than subtle. (JR)
