James Suckling (90)- "A bright, fruity wine with lush cherries, plums and flowers on the nose. Medium-bodied, velvety and structured on the palate, yet tight and austere in the finish."
Vinous Media (93)- "Wild blueberries mix with dusty sage, pine shavings and crushed stone as the 2019 Merlot Decima Aurea comes to life in the glass. It is sleek and cool-toned, with depths of tart wildberry fruits and crisp mineral tones that add tactile grip. A slight herbal tinge lingers, while hints of sour citrus and licorice mingle through the long, lightly structured finish. The Merlot Decima Aurea combines partially dried grapes with late harvest fruit and shows incredible balance."
Falstaff Magazine (92)- "Intense dark ruby red with purple reflections. Intense aromas of ripe cherries and plums on the nose with dark chocolate, liquorice and a hint of vanilla. Fresh and juicy on the palate, with very grippy tannins that still appear somewhat youthful."
