For some reason I expected this wine to be delicate. It’s elegant but not delicate. Nice concentration, well balanced oak, good savoury flavour, and considerable acidity. I wish I had some in my cellar – drink from 2010.
90-100 = outstanding fine wines
80-89 = very good
70-79 = good wines, of some character
60-69 = industrial, commercial quality
Note: point scores inevitably take some account of price (a $10 wine that scores 90 is not quite the same as a $100 wine that scores 90 pnts).
