justerini & brooks tasting note

Lush ripe fruit, seductive creamy tannins, extremely refined. Opulent flavours of ripe summer berry, fruit liqueur and alpine strawberry, a wonderful melt in the mouth texture. A real crowd pleaser.

critic reviews

93/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous

(vinified with 40% whole clusters): Deep red. Aromas of black cherry and sweet oak are lifted by a mineral pungency. Dense, sappy and saline, with its serious volume leavened by energy and cut. Less oaky today than the Champeaux, with a hint of peppery pungency (from the stems?) giving shape and lift to the broad, full middle palate. Finishes with serious but harmonious tannins, a hint of chocolate and excellent life and lift.
