Bruno Besa | Garnet to light tawny. Open nose with tar, nuts, small red fruits, roses, and aromatic herbs. Complex and tight palate with super-refined tannins, layered small red fruits, and long, clean, mineral finish. A Barolo for the long term. | 95

Stephen Brook | Muted cherry nose, with some floral charm. Rich and full-bodied, concentrated and dense, a serious wine with serious tannins. It could use a touch more freshness, but the weight and structure are impressive. Still very primary in its fruit expression and needs time to develop more nuance in bottle. Fine length. | 92

Andrew Jefford | Clear, light, and bright red. Oak evident here, over some warm, roasty fruits. Exuberant, plummy, relatively simple, but attractive at the right price. | 84
