James Suckling, 96 Points 

"Starting with very focused and dense fruit notes followed by ground cloves, brewed black tea and crushed rocks with expressive aromas of tree bark and wild herbs. Toast and blanched almonds, too. Beautifully framed mid-palate that is medium-bodied with fine-grained, juicy tannins and an attractive finish. Excellent tension and structure. It’s already enjoyable but will age beautifully, too. Try after 2026." 

Winemaker Notes:

"Perfumed and delicate on the nose, the wine showcases raspberry and black cherry notes with hints of cedar and sarsaparilla. Wood spices such as nutmeg and allspice perfectly complement the comforting and rich aromatic profile. The aromas carry over to the palate with firm tannins and balanced acidity. There is a brilliant aromatic lift on the mid-palate with flowers and citrus, giving way to a crushed quartz-like finish. Give this a little time in the cellar to reach its full potential." 

Alcohol: 13.7%
