Score 17.5/20 · Drink 2018-2028, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Jun 2018
What superb scent! Captures every inch of the Cabernet Franc style – cigar, tomato stalk, blackcurrant, garrigue – this is really delightful. Full but not heavy on the palate, with sweet oak vanillin on the finish. Modern, plush, perfumed. There’s nothing sacrilegious about Cabernet Franc in this terroir when the results are so delicious.
