BUY THE WINE

SH | Broad open nose with aromas of cooked red and black fruit, Bramley apple and blackberry notes, broad, round, softer mid palate some slightly earthy green leaf and green fruit flavours on the palate. this wine is less precise overall and a little more clumsy 'wild' some bitter green olive flavours dominate on the finish. this wine is a little lacking in focus.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2032. 88
AJ | Bright scarlet red with scarlet glints A little dry and grassy aromatically, with a cool sinew underpinning what seems like lightly shaded fruit. Not actually green as such but a cool cast to the fruit (oddly enough, after such a warm year). This is what you find on the palate, too. Could it be a whole-bunch wine? There is nothing wrong with the fruit qualities other than that the print of ripeness here is not a serene and resonant one.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2032. 88
MP | A hefty nose showing black cherry, damson, plum and black currant combined with a palate that offers a convincing note of liquorice and tar. Although it's easy to dismiss this wines very obvious aromatics, the wine shows a ripe blast of black fruit pasted onto ripe tannins that support the fruit and provide a textural counterpoint. The length is exceptional and the fruit and the structure work in harmony. This is classic Serralunga and t's pretty much ready to go.Drink Dates: 2028 - 2038. 96
