Score 92/100 · Allen Meadows, Burghound, Apr 2018
A discreet application of wood sets off the even more deeply pitched aromas that include plenty of floral with plum, pungent earth and soft sauvage hints. The more concentrated and powerful middle weight plus flavors possess good richness and muscle before concluding in a firm, focused and bitter cherry pit-inflected finish. In contrast to the prior two wines that should drink relatively well in their youth, this will need at least 5 years or so first.

Score 17/20 · Drink 2022-2030, Jancis Robinson MW, Jan 2018
Two barrels produced. No new oak. Ruby. Pure cherry aromas and a hint of spice on the nose. Lovely cherry palate too, with fine-grained but very forward tannins and a hint of greenery. Balanced but not yet integrated. (EL)
