James Suckling awarded this wine a score of 92, noting its "ground spice and bright red berries mix on the nose." He described it as "medium-to full-bodied with integrated tannins" and praised its "smooth and seamless" palate, recommending it for immediate consumption (jamessuckling.com, 1/14/2022).

Jeb Dunnuck rated the wine higher with a score of 94, highlighting its "more floral aromas, with sweet cedar, ripe raspberry, and baking spice." Dunnuck appreciated the "beautiful concentration and fresh fruit" and suggested it has a long finish with a hint of tangerine.

The review pointed out its "light-bodied, silky, fresh and ultra-perfumed" palate, noting it finishes "long and uplifted."
