BUY THE WINE

Jamie Goode | This has a lovely texture and concentration to it. Fine-grained tannins support luscious but balanced blackberry and blackcurrant fruit. Seamless and harmonious, with ripeness but also finesse. Has layers of flavor that weave in and out of each other. A really seductive yet quite serious wine that delivers a lot of pleasure. | 93

Andrew Jefford | Deep, saturated black-red. Sweet, fresh, inky fruits; spicy depths. A second very impressive prospect from 2012. Lively, full, soft, rounded, and appealing on the palate. The acids are a little more prominent here than the tannins in lending this wine structure, but overall the sense of poise and harmony is well realized; it is pure, drinkable, full, and long, with the years having brought some fruit complexity. Look out for soft, vivid blackcurrant and plum, well rounded and generous in contour, smooth-finishing but appetizing nonetheless. | 90

David Williams | Beautifully harmonious and caressing texture, this is a seamless and nicely evolved style that has a delicious exotic spice box character and gorgeous, perfectly ripe fruit and tannins. Very silky and pleasurable. | 92
