BUY THE WINE

Neil Beckett: Medium ruby. Attractive, fresh, tangerine-dream nose, if potent and stemmy underneath. Richly silken, powerfully structured, massively but roundly tannic. Beautifully balanced for its size, with appetizing acidity and great length of flavor, but finally a slightly raw, rude vigor. Still not fully tamed. Drink to 2016. 17
