BUY THE WINE

Jamie Goode | Sweet pastille-like berry fruits on the nose. Fresh, juicy, grippy palate with bright raspberry and cherry fruit, with a slightly sour, bitter edge. The acidity sticks out, accentuating the tannins and leaving the finish edgy and angular. This is not integrated. | 85

Peter Richards | Not super-deep, quite pale in the context. Very upfront, arresting, and distinctive aromas of blackcurrant pastille and eucalypt oil. A touch caricatured and simplistic, to be honest. Palate is dominated by creamy, oily oak flavors and textures. Short. Lacking profundity or verve. | 85

David Williams | Classic Chilean fruit-pastille nose— unmistakable. Succulent and supple palate with lots of juicy fruit, this is generous but not overworked, with an easy-drinking and far from serious style. | 87
