VINTAGE 2016: 92 Points - James Halliday January 2018
"Estate-grown, matured in French barriques for 12 months. A very snappy wine given its provenance first up, and then in the mouth. It is no more than medium-bodied, but unrolls its flavours steadily and surely, first up cassis/blackcurrant, then tapenade and persistent but soft tannins. An open-ended drinking span".
