94 points Tim Atkin, MW: "(13%). Follow The Line used to be a component of the Savage Red, but has now established itself as a superb Darling Cinsault in its own right. Fermented with 50% whole bunches, it’s a bright, enticing, rose water and bouquet garni scented red with granitic tannins and raspberry and redcurrant fruit. 2022-2028 (2021)"

90 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Follow The Line presents a well-defined nose of raspberry, mulberry and incense aromas, showing a little more intensity than the Savage Red 2019 that precedes it. The palate is medium-bodied, smooth and very supple, delivering moderate depth and a fine bead of acidity. This doesn't quite kick on toward the end as I might have liked. A Cinsault that is maybe too laid-back and would benefit from a little more grip on the finish. Drink 2022-2032. (07/21)."
