94 pts, Georgina Hindle, Decanter. "An intense nose with fragrant floral notes and dark berry fruit. Grippy and intense, the powdery, softly drying tannins come in pretty quickly and cover up some of the more fun, joyful fruit elements. Quite a serious, massy wine that leans into the vintage, also with 15% alcohol, ending with bitter black chocolate, espresso, tobacco and cinnamon. Needs some more time to relax and soften."
