94 points Sam Kim, WineOrbit, Nov 2023.
"Beautifully styled and composed, the wine shows ripe stone fruit, vanilla, roasted hazelnut and brioche characters on the nose. The palate is equally satisfying with excellent weight and smooth texture, wonderfully framed by bright acidity. Comforting and delectable, making it fabulously appealing. At its best: now to 2029."

90 points Toni Paterson, Halliday Wine
Companion, April 2024. "A delicious, classy, well-made wine with bright stone fruit and grapefruit tones. The intensity and zippiness of the fruit are engaging, as are the subtle winemaking details and overall harmony. High-quality fruit combined with astute winemaking is on display."
