DECANTER: "With appealing floral and red fruit aspects, a bright nose, the wine has a high-toned palate with just 'ripe enough' fruit. One misses the plumper plum of a veritable grand millésime, but 16 months ageing in 40% new oak will broaden the palate. Picked between 13 September and 4 October, this Merlot-dominated blend has 14% alcohol. Tasted twice with similar results."

VINUM: "Feiner Duft, Harz, Kirschen, florale Töne; frischer Auftakt, knackige Frucht, gut dosiertes Holz, feine Tannine und saftige Säure; ausgewogen, frisch, für die mittlere Reife gebaut."

JAMES SUCKLING: "This is medium-bodied with a fresh and juicy nature, offering blue fruit and a hint of orange peel. Fine and transparent with smooth tannins."

FALSTAFF: „Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart nach Zwetschken, frische Kirschen, kandierte Orangenzesten. Schlank, rotbeerig, zart nach Ribisel, zarte Tannine, frisch strukturiert, salziger Abgang, bietet unkompliziertes Trinkvergnügen."
