Score 92/100 · Drink 2022-2036, Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux, May 2022
Deep dark fruits, edge of brett, beautiful floral notes, fresh acidities that keep things powering along, enticing tobacco and cigar box aromatics, this is enjoyable, with appellation signature and still delivering please. 80% new oak.

Medium bodied, but not exactly light, there is a leafy, herbal note on top of the bright red fruits, tobacco and cedar. The wine is fresh in nature, soft in texture and ready to drink, with its red fruit and tobacco leaning. This is not a wine for long term aging. 90 Points
