Gary Walsh 95+ points![A] fine example that comes off sixty something year old vines.. Spice, with cinnamon foremost, high perfume, red licorice and red fruit tempered by savoury earthen elements. Medium weight with lovely texture " a sweep of fine grained tannin and fresh, unforced acidity " all even and perfectly pitched with an impressively long palate. Cranberry freshness and a sort of almond flavour add further appeal. Likely to improve and gain complexity with any number of years on it, if you can wait. Irresistible.

Nick Stock 96 points! The 2010 vintage marks a step closer to the essence of both grape and place with a precise, transparent, fragrant and ethereal raspberry-scented wine; essence-like confectionery notes, some florals, gentle oak spice and a little red licorice edge too. The palate's fine and completely uncluttered, just filigree tannins running straight down the centre amid a sleeve of musky red berry flavour. The power is deceptive, such is the elegance here. Will age superbly.
