AJ | Bright and translucent red-black to pale garnet at the rim. This is notably tarry, but a bit dryer and less interesting, aromatically, than most of its Serralunga peers. Ditto on the palate. Drinkable and in some ways savoury, and with more resource on the palate than the aroma, but still just a little dry and tarry, without the fruited resource of the best.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2032. 87
BB | Garnet to pink. Open, tar and roses, red fruits, smoke and leather, cedar wood nose. Full body with balanced palate, mint, sour cherries, minerals palte very long and weightless finish. Another one for the cellar.Drink Dates: 2030 - 2040. 94
MP | Powerful nose showing very obvious notes of stewed black fruit, tar, the first hints of oxidation, baked plum and mushroom. This is now fully developed and therefore a disappointment in the context of this vintage.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2026. 88
