Score 88+/100 · Drink 2019-2024, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Apr 2018

Medium ruby-red. Blackberry, licorice pastille, herbs and smoky minerality on the nose. Juicy, savory and youthfully imploded, even bit reduced, showing the tightness of the young 2016 but not the exotic white fruit note of that wine. This rather suave, lightly oaky wine displays modest sweetness and good penetration. Finishes with a firm dusting of tannins and a slight dryness. Not yet ready to drink.

Score 91/100 · James Suckling, Feb 2018

Intense brambleberry essence, violet extract, bark and lots of underbrush. Very fruity but this also shows tension with a firm tannin backbone and a pretty finish. Juicy and drinkable. Drink now or hold.
