TASTING NOTES

A moody and dark-fruited style that has a wealth of richness with red and dark plums on offer. The palate delivers a rich, spicy and alluring array of dark plums and blackberries. Muscular tannins. From organically grown grapes. 

James Suckling, JamesSucking.com

Blackberries, crushed violets, ample minerality, and some scorched earth notes all emerge. Medium to full-bodied, tight and concentrated on the palate, with good acidity, plenty of extract, and a great finish. It has plenty of upfront charm, yet a tighter, firm core that's going to benefit from short-term cellaring. It’s capable of lasting for 20-25 years. 

Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com

A blend of old vines in the lieux-dits of Côte Brune and Côte Blonde, shows a bit of cedary oak up front. It's full-bodied and ripe on the palate, with herb-tinged red fruit notes that show mammoth complexity and a fine, silky, long finish.

Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate.
