81/100Good
Hall struggles with Bordeaux-style wines, and no more so than in this hot vintage. Although the wine is fully dry, it's harsh, with very little fruit, and a hot, tannic finish.
Flavor profile
An estimate of the wine's structure: body (how full it feels), acidity (tartness), sweetness, and tannin (the drying grip in reds).
