Critic Ratings
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate Review – Rated 93:
Wine & Spirits Review – Rated 93:
Beautifully perfumed with brilliant florals, spicy scents of esteva and cinnamon bark, this is a great young vintage Warre’s. It’s luscious and chocolate-rich in the middle, then classically gripping in the end. The spiciness lasts, as does the potent depth of fruit, buffering the heat of the wine. This should be accessible early on, yet it has the structure to last years.
Wine Enthusiast Review – Rated 90:
A fine, perfumed wine with great fruit. It’s ripe, with lovely rich flavors and a backbone of firm tannins. This is a good, solid, classic wine. Imported by Vineyard Brands.
