Neil Beckett | Medium-deep ruby with a natural luster. An alluring nose, darkly fruited but restrained, with a light "mineral" reduction; lovely and pure underneath, with cherry-stone fruit. Beautiful on entry, densely layered and richly succulent, the intensity matching the purity of the fruit; balanced and fresh, gently expansive, harmonious top to bottom, with firm but polished tannins and a long, graceful finish. | 95
