Wine Enthusiast
(5/1/2020) "This aromatic blend of at least 10 different varieties is both juicy and rich. Fine tannins steal through the black fruits to give both a rich structure and density. The wine with its bright acidity at the end is ready to drink."

(4/2020) "This wine's tart cherry flavors feel cool and oceanic. Some green notes of peppercorn and cherry leaf hold its concentrated flavors tight, embedded in clay-like tannins. What's confidential about this wine is the blend of more than ten varieties, grown in clay-limestone soils, and the names of ten unfamiliar varieties probably don't matter when the wine is so fresh and bright."
