Nicolas Belfrage: Medium, some turn. Nose undeveloped but correct, lots of sour cherry fruit combined with firm acid skein running through and holding fruit in place. Very correct rather than charming but could pan out nicely, needs time, drink from 2015. 16.5

Roy Richards Gentle, and this is the right color for the grape variety. Acidity, praise be. This is not a big wine, but I wish there were more like it. Correct in every sense, calls out to be drunk. 17

Franco Ziliani: Deep, intense nose with good fruit expression. Mineral, aromatic and herbal notes, with good freshness and elegance. Very direct, with energetic tannins on the palate. Multidimensional, well-balanced wine of vertical more than large expression. Very good to taste now, with some interesting ageing potential. 16.5
