BUY THE WINE

Michael Edwards: Deep, dark ruby, some look of extraction but still natural; black plums, black cherry, seductive and sensual scents; at once attractive in the mouth, juicy ripe Pinot and the intensity of old vines without heaviness. No long wait needed: will be good young or with age. Exceptional this year. 17
