92 points and 'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .81 ha parcel of 40+ year old vines). This isn't quite as animale as the Lavaut though there is certainly a healthy dollop of this character present on the cool, pure and beautifully layered nose of earthy red currant and wild dark berries that are trimmed in a hint of exotic tea. There is a more refined texture to the tautly muscular and focused middle weight flavors that conclude in a pungently stony, balanced and wonderfully long finish that is also youthfully austere. This beauty is likewise recommended. Drink: 2022+. (Jan 2015)"
Doug Barzelay (Old Vine Notes): "...soft blackberry and blueberry fruit, spice, stones, a touch of meatiness and excellent density... (12/18/13)"
