BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford | Clear, pale red, though nothing senescent in the hue. Attractive, sweetly true scents of the cherry orchard and the hay rick. Soft, limpid, clear, and fully ready. A delicate but pure-spirited Pinot that is ready to be dispatched, and that would make an excellent and refined dinner companion. | 89

Anne Krebiechl | Just a touch of reduction plays on the nose, which does not give away much else. Throughout, this is full of slender poise. The palate reveals harmonious red-berry notes, backed by textured richness with just a little heat backed by a counterpoint of vivid, lively freshness. There is a lasting touch of tart, red cherry. | 93

Jancis Robinson | Bright ruby. Violets and fully evolved but without quite enough energy. But decent enough with some evolution. Just a bit raw. 2015–22. | 88
