BUY THE WINE

Nicolas Belfrage: Deep almost opaque. Slightly drainsy on the nose, trying too hard with the wood? Fairly unpleasant palate – tannic, lacking fruit, drying. Unpleasant, in a word. 7

Roy Richards Where does this jet-black color come from? Nose is less objectionable, even if international – second nose is more stewed black fruit. Sweet and green vegetal notes and winemaking, rather than typicity. 13

Franco Ziliani: Medium ruby-violet color. The nose is not perfectly clean and the fruit is overwhelmed by oaky, spicy notes, with some over-extractive green aspects. Banal wine with a bitter, dry, astringent finish. 12
