BUY THE WINE

Bruno Besa | Garnet to orange, pink. Slightly closed on the earthy cedarwood and prune nose, yet clean and complex. Full-bodied, with intense acidity yet balanced by the layered, sweet black and red fruit. Long and clean. | 91

Andrew Jefford | Light, bright, and translucent blood-red. Evolved, but deep and resonant, with rich, fleshy aromatic notes, supple, textured, and full: a super-enticing nose without ever being overdrawn or overstated. Hints of warm resin mingle with the oak copse and underbrush. Ample, rich, and architectural in the mouth. A ripe style, without a lot of supporting acidity, but there is enough resonance of fruit and aromatic intricacy to carry the wine well. | 88

Anthony Rose | Medium ruby hue; quite evolved on both nose and palate. Savory, without any great complexity or redeeming features. | 88
