Awards and/or Press Quotes Silver Medal (90 points) - Decanter World Wine Awards 2023 88 points - RobertParker.com, Review by Mark Squires, May 2023 · 90/Editors' Choice - Wine Enthusiast, August / September 2023 : “Structured with tannins, young black fruits and a mineral texture, this fine wine has plenty of potential. Its richness is just showing through the wine's texture. Drink from 2025.”
Wine Enthusiast 90 Points. 'Soft, sweet ripe fruit nose of dark fruit liqueur, chocolat & Christmas spice. A big wine with a massive structure. Accessible, creamy style flirting between fruit and oak. It has a firm, dark berry fruit on the finish and good balance.'
