ANSON: "Vivid ruby with a violet rim, a proper vibrant En Primeur colour, soft red fruits on the nose, austere without being forbidding, this is really charming, has bright fruit and a juicy finish, good job from the Lurton team. Harvest 19 -30 September. 50% new oak for ageing, 47 hl/ha yield."

JAMES SUCKLING: "A silky and balanced red with aromas of red berries and some mild spices as well. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins. Refined texture with berries in the textural finish."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Flowers, and black raspberries open the wine. From there, the medium-bodied, palate delivers a profile of fresh, zesty, citrus-tinted red berries with a hint of Indian spice that pops up on the backend. This vibrant wine is quite classic in style and should drink well with just a bit of time in the cellar. The wine is a blend of 85% Merlot, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. 13.5% ABV, pH 3.45. Drink from 2027-2038."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Nuancen von frische Herzkirschen, ein Hauch von Brombeerkonfit, kandierte Orangenzesten, einladendes Bukett. Mittlerer Körper, rote Kirschen, frisch strukturiert, mineralisch und gut anhaftend, ein lebendiger Speisenbegleiter."
