100 points James Suckling: “This is very tannic and powerful with loads of currants, spices and hints of wood. So much stone and mineral character to this. Violets, too. Full-bodied, tight and structured. Massively dense yet agile and bright. It goes on for minutes. Needs at least three or four years to soften. Try in 2020. (11/9/16)"
99 points Falstaff: "Clear, shining ruby with a fine garnet sheen. A perfect nose - smells of ripe, intense cherries, lots of blackberry. Plenty of rich ripe fruit but does not seem overripe at any moment, whilst in the background tobacco and cardamom add multilayered complexity. The approach again has plenty of ripe, vivid fruit - cherry and blackberry - then unfolds with fine-meshed, grippy tannin. Profound and salty with a very long finish, this wine is difficult not to swallow! (3/18/16)"
