BUY THE WINE

Bruno Besa | Garnet to orange, pink. Decadent, cedarwood and farmyard nose, with small- red-fruit character. Medium-bodied, with firm tannins, a complex mineral palate and herbal, high-toned finish. | 90

Andrew Jefford | Clear, bright, limpid black-red. Vibrant red fruits with some green-leaf notes: fair. Quietly attractive. A little slender and green-tinged in what should surely be a uniformly ripe year. Short finish. | 84

Anthony Rose | Medium-ruby; herby and red-fruit aromas; pleasantly juicy and fresh red-berry fruits on the palate, tinged with herbs, firmish tannins, and finishing on a clean, refreshingly balanced note with well-integrated oak. | 90
