A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Shows the purity and focus of the vintage, with a lovely core of fresh plum, raspberry and blackberry fruit melded together and backed by a light graphite spine on the violet-edged finish. A delight now, but has the balance to develop a bit more in the cellar. Drink now through 2021. Smart Buys. Score - 90 (James Molesworth, winespectator.com, Dec. 15, 2016) |
