Wine Business Magazine | November/December 2020. Mike Bennie – 93 points
Warm and rich, soft and supple, a flow of pretty forest berry jolly vibes with liberal cinnamon, raisin and stewed plum chiming in. Has that almost impossibly velvet texture going on, feels slurpy and oh so very drinkable from first sip. Mass appeal, in its way. A reliable guzzler.
