This vintage has received high praise from several esteemed wine reviewers. Decanter awards it a remarkable score of 94, describing it as "sophisticated and refined, but above all so joyous to drink," with "succulent" notes of blackcurrant, Morello cherry, and raspberry.

James Suckling gives the wine a score of 92, noting its flavors of "blackberries and blueberries with chocolate and walnut undertones." He appreciates its "creamy tannins" and suggests that it could benefit from a few years of aging, although it is already quite enjoyable.

Vinous, through Neal Martin, rates it 91, emphasizing the wine's "intense bouquet of blackberry and bilberry fruit" and its "lovely balance" with touches of dark chocolate in the finish. Similarly, The Wine Independent also scores it a 91, noting its "medium to deep garnet-purple" color and a palate with a "firm, grainy backbone" and "oodles of freshness."
