91 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "(50% new oak foudres) Bright ruby. Lively red berry, lavender, vanilla and exotic spice aromas are joined by a smoky mineral nuance that builds in the glass. Juicy, focused and appealingly sweet, offering vibrant raspberry and cherry-vanilla flavors that deepen with air. Finishes supple, smoky and quite long, delivering solid thrust and smooth, harmonious tannins. (Sep 2017)"
91 points Wine Enthusiast: "Ripe, juicy cassis and blackberry notes seduce from nose to finish here. It's a brawny, rather lavish wine, both in body and fruit, but nuanced too, accentuated by hints of garrigue, leather and earth. Richly concentrated and long on the finish, it's framed neatly by fine, persistent tannins. Alcohol 14.5%. (Mar 2018)"
90 points Wine Spectator: "Singed alder and juniper notes lead the way, pulling a core of lightly dried plum and red cherry fruit along. There's a good tug of earth through the grippy-edged finish. (11/20/17)"
