89-92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(40% whole cluster). A fresh, cool and appealingly layered nose reflects notes of mostly dark berries and plum where additional breadth is present in the form of earth, floral and pepper wisps. There is notably more volume and mid-palate concentration to the vibrant and muscular medium-bodied flavors that possess both fine depth and length. This moderately structured effort is worth considering. Drink: 2022+. (Jan 2018)"

Producer notes: "Located on the east slope of the hill, this is an old vineyard between 60 to 70 years old. This soil is 60cm to 1 meter deep with sandy, silt soil type from the degradation of the granite. This is a plot in one piece which produces some elegant wines that we can drink earlier than the other cuvées."
