BUY THE WINE

Simon Field | Modest magenta hue, cherry-red, but not the ripest cherries in the basket. The nose is a little stewed, a characteristic transferred to the palate, which seems to lack both concentration and a potential to provide significant points of interest. | 87

Andrew Jefford | Light, clear garnet-red. Sweet, warm, and attractive scents, though without any great intricacy. Lots of floral cherry charm; pure and pristine. Lively and vivid on the palate, with attractively fresh fruits, though it lacks depth and density against the peers in this tasting. Enjoy the cherry charm. Very little tannin here, but some bright acids. | 85

David Williams | Limpid, pure cranberry and raspberry on the nose—very primary and pretty, but with excellent depth and so refreshing and crisp, too. Deceptively simple. | 90
