Score 91-92/100 · James Suckling, Jan 2019
The violets are quite entrancing with a wealth of briary, fresh red-berry and pomegranate notes. The palate has a very sturdy core of quite dense tannins. Great length. Sixty-year-old vines, low yields on sandy, friable soils with a limestone base. Drink or hold.
