Critic Ratings
James Suckling Review – Rated 94:
Fresh blue fruit with dried herbs, ripe stems and white pepper. Very juicy, fresh and fine-grained on the palate with a medium body and a crunchy, fluid finish. Quite long.
Wine Spectator Review – Rated 92:
A fresh and ready-to-drink version, with a mélange of dried hibiscus, orange peel and red currant folding over onto the smooth-textured palate. Abundant spice details add to the berry preserve flavors, and a twinge of crunchy acidity chimes in to drive the finish. Offers nice length, suggesting the possibility of short-term cellaring. Drink now through 2034.
