AJ | Scarlet-black, but perhaps wth less polyphenolic density than the 21s. Rounded, fresh and classical, with both black cherry and raspberry fruits. Soft-focus but very enticing here, and a lovely falling sweetness: cherry Chantilly cream. A leafy note brings freshness. Vital and mouthfilling, with the leafy note a bit more prominent than I thought it would be on the nose. Zesty Pinot.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2028. 90
AR | Vivid youthfully ruby-hued, this is sweet, spicy and refreshingly herbally perfume, and distinctively pinot noir all in one; although still youthful, the sweet red cherry and raspberry fruit, tinged with herb, is already surprisingly approachably juicy and hard not to actually drink, even if it will continue to improve in bottle over the next five years or so, given its balance and elegance.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2029. 92
DW | Very primary and youthful: unmediated red cherry juice; shimmering with fresh-fruit concentration and succulence, and supple ripe tannins, and a lovely freshening streak of blood orange tang and pithy bite. A delightful young, fresh red wine filled with verve and life.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2030. 93
