BUY THE WINE

Alex Hunt: 77

Andrew Jefford: Deep, dark purple-red. Soft and low-focus, but attractive nonetheless: a warm susurration of sour fruits. On the palate, there is in fact much more than the nose sketched out: real resources here of tarry black cherry and damson. “It’s only fruit,” you might say—yet when the fruit is this deep and this closely woven and this gratifying... hats off! 92

Peter Liem: This is juicy and straightforward, thriving on its bold ripeness. It’s dense and dark in flavor, and it manages to remain harmonious through the fragrant finish. 85
