Reviews

Rating: 3/5 - As reviewed by Decanter Some dried fruit on nose, farmyard hints. Nice dried fruit, clove character, spicy and with some fruit finish. Quite serious. Drink now.

Spectator Review: "The 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon displays herb-tinged dark fruit aromas as well as flavors. This medium-bodied wine coats the palate with its blackberry-dominated personality then tightens to a slightly rustic finish..."

Rating: 18/20 - As reviewed by Jancis Robinson Notably deep crimson. Some fresh (very slightly underripe?) notes on the nose but ripe tannins. Particularly clean and frank. You could drink this essence of blackcurrants already. There's an attractive kick at the end.

Intense red ruby color. Complex and aromatic bouquet of red mature fruits, with cassis, plum, cherries, and jammy flavors intermixed with discreet oaky notes. An expressive and very well balanced wine with supple, mature and round tannins that makes it ready to drink right now. However, this wine will benefit if cellared for several years.
