BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford | Clear, bright black-red. Sweet, soft, and warm scents: a cherry-fruit nose-mitten. Comfy! Very clear, light, limpid, straightforward, and direct. Uncomplicated, well-made, clean- contoured Spätburgunder that is now fully ready, but it doesn’t really compete in the “serious Pinot” stakes. | 87

Anne Krebiechl | The merest touch of reduction still plays on the nose but is joined by heady notes of conifer and tart, red fruit of lovely aromatic depth. This has barely begun to show—all we see for now is lovely poise and balance and a smooth, harmonious, and wonderfully unforced mid-palate that has bite and depth. This is alluring and completely self-evident. Its honesty and clarity are disarming. | 95

Jancis Robinson | Mid-garnet, withatransparent rim. Light, subtle nose. Lots of impact—both fresh fruit and acidity. Clearly a very good wine on the palate. Real character and balance here. Substance. Lip-smacking! Long. 2017–26. | 90
