Decanter
Winemaker Stéphane Vivier matures this Cabernet in 50% new French oak for 22 months. Fragrant dusty earth minerals, cranberry fruit laced with cinnamon spices, and hints of dried rosemary and sage. Medium-bodied with gentle tannins that glide to a spicy finish with blood orange acidity and hints of clove and cassis.

James Suckling
Dark berries, creamy cherries and chocolate on the nose. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins and texture. Rich and fruity with a sweet touch towards the finish. Attractive now, but better from 2025.

Wine Enthusiast
Cinnamon cocoa, dark fruits and resinous herbs move nose through palate into a framework of approachable tannins and a finish of spice and lingering acidity.
