BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford: Dark black-red. Fine cherry fruit with a cologne-like perfumed sheen. Vivid, fresh, long and curranty, but unquestionably a soprano. It’s been teased to ripeness, but that pure, tapered acidity provides the skeleton. 2018–22. 89

Michael Schuster: Light and lightly oaky to smell; medium-full, crisp, and dominated by its wood-tannin; overall a bit on the lean side, modest in complexity, light in length; pleasant, but probably to drink young while the fruit is still fresh and to the fore. 2017–25. 86
