BUY THE WINE

Nicolas Belfrage: Deepish hue. Uneventful nose. Quite bitter and aggressive on palate. Maybe needs time; maybe not. Considerable asperity hit on finish- 13:

Bruno Besa: Tawny to brick yellow rim. Touch oxidized nose, with jammy, developed fruit. Mature, astringent palate- 12:

Jancis Robinson: Ruby, with a rusty rim. First bottle was oxidized; second bottle slightly less so. But the fruit still lacks freshness. Sickly. Overripe and without aromatic clarity. Drink 2014–16- 12 :
