"A discreet touch of wood easily allows the overtly floral and wonderfully elegant spicy black cherry aromas to be appreciated. There is terrific intensity to the mineral-driven and once tautly muscular flavors that deliver the same superb depth on the very firm, serious and hugely long finale. While there is a very mild hint of warmth there is nothing else for which to reproach this beauty of a CSJ." (94pts Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jan 2018)
