95 points – James Halliday
There’s a density, a plushness and a level of complexity that puts this in reserve territory. Nicely layered with sweet fruit, spice, cedary oak and ripe, textural tannins. It has a certain savouriness, almost ferrous and of all things, this feels cool across the full-bodied palate.
