Alex Hunt | This has already evolved to a sort of vitamin-pill dryness. It’s green and austere, despite the typical alcohol. | 78

Andrew Jefford | Black-red; light and translucent. Some meaty maturity here; decidedly secondary aromas, but attractive. Soft, light, and grassy; simple basic Pinot but recognizably varietal and with some lingering, well-sorted interest. A little very welcome grip, too. | 86

Anthony Rose | Pale, evolving to garnet in color. Still fresh and youthful in aroma, notes of spice and dark berry, good dark berry fruits tinged with spice, firm tannic muscular grip on a dry finish whose freshness is keeping this Pinot very much alive; nice sweet-and-sour cherryish finish that’s starting to dry out, so this needs drinking now. | 89
