5+ Stars & 95 Points - Sammy the Winewriter, August 2026
Ripe cherry and black plum aromas invite you in. It smells ripe and jammy yet fresh, with an undercurrent of earthy soil, cinnamon stick and a dusting of white pepper spice. Wow - the palate is fine-tuned and operating on a higher frequency. High, fresh acidity carries a concentrated wave of berry fruit across fine-grained, flowing tannins, finishing long on mocha, clove and liquorice notes. Absolutely delicious. The fruit is polished, the oak is carefully managed, and the result is stunning.

Moderately deep crimson with a purple hue, even colour throughout. The nose is gently full, with aromas of blackberry, plum, vanilla, baking spice and herb. Medium-bodied, aromas of blackberry and plum have a pure core, entwined with vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon, and subtle dried thyme. The fruit is elegant and pure with good intensity and lively acidity. The tannins are silky, gently framing the succulent fruit, unfolding sweet spices and a lengthy finish. A well-rounded, appealing Pinot Noir
97 Points & 5 Stars - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit July 2026:
Immensely complex and perfumed on the nose, revealing aromas of sweet cherry, dark plum, bouquet garni, porcini, pressed flowers, and roasted hazelnut. The concentrated palate exhibits a seamlessly flowing mouthfeel, wonderfully framed by a plush texture and layers of fine tannins, making it exquisitely structured and harmonious with a sustained, gratifying finish
