Score 18/20 · Drink 2031-2051, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Jan 2018
Strong savoury elements – soy, black cherry, tacky tannic feel, and a long smoky scent on the finish. Intense and terribly youthful, as if still glowing from the forge. (RH)

Score 91-94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jan 2018
Healthy dark red with ruby tones. Black cherry and licorice aromas are lifted by a violet topnote. Tight and minty on entry, then a bit more pliant in the middle, conveying an impression of medicinal reserve to its dark flavors of black cherry, spices and minerals. Finishes with substantial tooth- and tongue-dusting tannins. This wine also had a late malo and comes off as very backward today, in need of more élevage to gain in flesh and sweetness.
