[Combining] opulence with grace and impeccable balance, it's gloriously expressed on the nose showing dark and purple fruit characters with spicy oak, dark cocoa, tapenade and violet nuances. The palate exhibits exceptional concentration and persistency, offering multi-layered mouthfeel and velvety tannins. Substantial and captivating with loads of attractive flavours. At its best: 2024 to 2040. Score - 97. (Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nz, June 2020)
