Nicolas Belfrage: Quite deep, some turn. Herb and plum on nose; also wood. Good concentration and ripeness of fruit, something a little excessive about the bitter hit, but it stays the course. Quite long. 15.5

Bruno Besa: Black core to garnet rim. Developed, touch vegetal nose. Full-bodied palate with quite rustic finish. 14.5

Stephen Brook: Very deep red. Dumb plummy nose. Voluptuous attack, but essentially soft and rather soupy. Bland rather than exciting, with a good deal of alcohol and a hot, rather coarse finish. Vino Nobile? 13
