94 points Joanna Simon (Decanter): "A summer marked by exceptional heatwaves but with cooler interludes and, at the end of July, exceptionally heavy, beneficial downpours. The final blend by Luca D’Attoma sees Cabernet Sauvignon increased to 60%, with 35% Merlot and 5% Syrah. It's a big, concentrated, luscious wine: still young, but the components are in balance, including the freshness and succulence vital to such opulent black fruits and powerful, ripe tannins. It's already developing the characteristic, more complex notes of incense and sandalwood. (Drink between 2021-2032. (11/21/19)"
94 points Falstaff Guide: "Rich sparkling ruby purple colour. Impressive rich nose, aromas of ripe dark blackberry, blackcurrant, plus some fresh fig, and fine dark chocolate. Rich, dense tannins, lots of vivid ripe fruit on the palate, long finish, still a little lingering oak on the finish. (8/28/14)"
