Critics reviews

Jancis Robinson MW 16.5/20

Pretty and very fresh, really on the button and rich from the vintage but with admirable drive.

Drink 2024 - 2032

Old vines. Medium deep pink purple. Fine nose with more muscle than Epenottes. Darker fruit, more muscle but the tannins are well integrated. Good length. And still pleasingly understated.
