BUY THE WINE

Nicolas Belfrage: Medium deep with some brick on rim. Fruit-dominated morello cherry nose. Professionally made but lacks excitement. Drink 2010 to 2016. 13.5

Roy Richards Strong and powerful – no evolution on second nose. The palate is also powerful with compact but inexpressive fruit. Brooding and at present a little dull. 13

Franco Ziliani: Ruby-violet color of good intensity and depth. The nose is complex, mysterious, with earthy mineral notes with cherry and plum) and some dried flowers notes. The palate is rich, full-bodied, with tannins slightly dry and bitter and not perfectly harmonized, with a feeling of something extraneous to the wine. 12.5
