Decanter’s review, which also gave the wine a score of 91, described it as having a “subdued nose” that “opens up to show savoury redcurrant and raspberry fruits.” The publication noted the estate's focus on “texture, minerality and spice over fruit,” and mentioned that while there is complexity, the “acidity is a touch high.”
