BUY THE WINE

Bruno Besa | Garnet to pink. Open, mature, intense red-fruits nose, clean, with great mineral complexity and a refined, herbal character. Medium to full body, noble tannins, a sweet red fruit palate, clean, complex, and layered, with a long, fragrant finish. | 93

Stephen Brook | The nose shows piquant wild strawberry and redcurrant fruit that’s invigorating, with no hint of overripeness. Silky and stylish on the palate, with admirable attack and energy. It has the firm acidity that gives the palate definition and vigor. It’s not the biggest wine on the block, but it’s finely tuned and elegant, with plenty of concentration, complexity, and grip. Balanced, lifted, and long, this will go the distance. | 94

Andrew Jefford | Clear, glowing bright garnet red. Interesting if off-beat aromas of grapefruit pith and Cascade hops: a kind of herbaceousness? Slightly anomalous in 2015 if so. On the palate, that grapefruit-pith note is evident, qualifying the curranty fruits. 2018–22. | 84
