Critical response
Joe Czerwinski (The Wine Advocate) gave the 2019 vintage a score of 96-points, saying it had a ‘long, mouthwatering finish’.
Antonio Galloni (Vinous) rated it 97+ and said he expected it to ‘enjoy a long life based on its spectacular balance’.

Fair Value
The new release looks expensive versus many of its back vintages. The 98-point (WA) 2012, 2014 and 2018 all look good value, with prices around £2,000 per case.
The 97-point 2016 might be another buying option, while the 96-point 2013, 2015 and 2017 also offer value.
