BUY THE WINE

Richard Mayson: Much more youthful in appearance than the Malvedos; fine and focused yet gentle on the nose, dry and lacking some fruit on both nose and palate, now starting to look a bit frail, the peppery tannic backbone leading to a rather dry, austere finish. Good now but drying out. Drink over the next five years. 14
