Nicolas Belfrage: Neutral color and nose, balsam and cherry, but berry there too, a hint of the roader, drinking from 2012. 15

Roy Richards Unusual, tropical fruit nose, exotic but subdued. The oak is present in the mouth, but there is so much fruit that it should pull through. Too showy at present. Perhaps age will bring more serious interest. 15

Franco Ziliani: Dark inky color very concentrated, dense with some oaky, toasted notes in excess. Good structure, but not great complexity, and the final is slightly bitter and dry, with unharmonious tannins. 14
