Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (96)

It offers a gorgeously bright medium-to-dark ruby color and extraordinary fragrances of super-ripe plums, cherries, and morel mushrooms. This brooding, powerful, full-bodied, mouth-coating, and refined block-buster is crammed with awesomely sweet black raspberries, cherries, candied strawberries, cassis, stones, and raw meat flavors that last throughout its unending finish. Wow! Bravo!

Winespectator (93)

Majestic red Burgundy. Big, massive and racy, this full-bodied Pinot is loaded with pure, clean and sharp cassis, blackberry and raspberry character that marries nicely with subtly toasted and spicy oak accents. The tannins are tender, but the crisp, fresh acidity and zesty finish suggest cellaring this monster wine.
