This shows plenty of wet earth and blueberry and black-olive character. Full body, fine and round tannins and a juicy finish. Hot stones and gravel. Intense. Yes. Drink now or hold. - James Suckling
A leading Lalande estate from Durantou that is more austere than his Castillon estate, Montlandrie. This has an extremely enjoyable salted caramel edge to it, but will need a few years to lose the tightness - finely layered tannins are confidently holding those black fruits in their grip at present. Drinking Window 2019 - 2030. Jane Anson, Decanter
A fresh, ripe style, with a bright core of raspberry and plum coulis flavors lined with refined structure, backed by light rooibos tea and mineral threads on the finish. Stylish. Drink now through 2022. 2,125 cases made. - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
