BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford | Graceful light red. Rather keroseney fruits with some ill-assorted oak. Dry, sharp, and sinewy; I’m afraid I couldn’t enjoy drinking this. | 79

Anne Krebiechl | Mocha and roasted coffee-bean notes hint at new oak. For now, they dominate the nose, but underneath ripe, juicy, even plump forest fruit and red berries play against a backdrop of fresh acidity. There is balance and lots of freshness alongside the riper notes. This is mouthwatering but rather up front. | 92

Jancis Robinson | Mid-, evolving ruby. Quite evolved nose that suggests caramel and fragrant ferns. Not the noblest array of Pinot Noir flavors, but lively and refreshing with significant but (just) not excessive acidity. Grainy tannins on the end. Quite long. Slightly simple, and it tastes as though the grapes were only just ripe enough but creditable. 2018–24. | 88
