A plump, round wine. Berry fruit and oak nose, bright and ripe consistency. Full enough, with a tug of tannin keeping it straight, and the fruit retaining the upper hand on the finish. Nice wine. Rating: 90 L&S (Apr 2012)

Dark ruby. A whiff of oak blows off to reveal lovely purity of red fruit and floral aromas. Then fresh, clean and precise on the palate, with enticing sweetness to the pure red berry, mineral and vanilla flavors. The wine's smooth tannins and rising length left me wanting to drink more. A success for the vintage. Rating: 87-90 Ian d'Agata, www.vinousmedia.com (May 2012)
Dark greyish crimson. Ripe dark fruit – cassis and raspberry and cherry – and just a touch cedary. A light smoky/Lapsang note. Rich, dense fruit that is just ripe – fresh and intense. Firm, chewy tannins. Big structure. Full bodied and still fragrant on the long finish. 2017-2026 Rating: 16.5 Julia Harding MW, www.JancisRobinson.com (Apr 2012)
Nicely concentrated cassis with a lifted leafiness, good grippy concentration on the palate but it needs time to lose the greenness. Drink 2016-2024. Rating: 16 www.decanter.com (Apr 2012)
