Review

"Extremely mellow, rich nose – like essence of Pinot Noir! Presumably thanks to the plant material, vine age and length of tirage. And one can see the rigour of the oak influence. Dry, lingering finish. A food wine, or wine to meditate over. A true thrill to experience. So neat and contained! A wine that takes you on a journey as you taste through from the rich start to the dry finish." - 20/20, Jancis Robinson
