Andrew Jefford | Deep clear black-red. Correct but shy raspberry and black-cherry scents, with some oak. Lean, mordant, and linear, with a little dash of raspberry vinegar among the raspberry (though neither acetic nor volatile—I’m just trying to convey its style of acid energy). Enjoyably pungent and bright, and the fruit quite correctly has the upper hand on the palate. This seems to me a good Spätburgunder—in other words, an enjoyable, characterful, and typical Pinot of the far north. | 89

Anne Krebiechl | Smoky pine branches overlay lovely, bright, red fruit. There is real tartness here: redcurrant and cranberry and lively, sprightly freshness, alongside a fine gauze of still crunchy tannin. This is slender but deep. Acidity and tannin make for a lasting, firm structure. An alluring edge of Campari bitterness adds extra interest. This is firm and needs to mellow but is very promising. | 94

Jancis Robinson | Deep garnet. Light violet scents are rather Côte de Beaunish. Lots of fruit albeit unevolved fruit. Good attack and confidence. Real mid-palate presence. Great balance. Should be quite a long- distance runner to judge from the tannin level. 2019–27. | 89
