BUY THE WINE

Alison Buchanan: Slightly paler prune in color, with amber lights. The nose here adds an almost licorice dimension—fennel, certainly—on the nose. There is one element that just slightly jars and adds a bitterness to the general entourage of macerated dried fruit, nuts, and cream, and this also crops the finish. 15.5

Jesús Barquín: Medium chestnut. The nose offers toasty notes and a certain vinosity that becomes even more present on the palate, with echoes of youth. Very sweet. 14

Julian Jeffs: Rather a lightweight, both on the nose and in body. Has some length. 11.5
