BUY THE WINE

Bruno Besa | Ruby to lively pink. Youthful, clean, red-fruit nose, with intense aromatic character. Red cherries with fresh herbs nose. Medium body, with sweet, clean, red fruit. Clean finish. This needs a bit more time to show some more depth and complexity. | 90

Andrew Jefford | Quite deep-hued, but light and clear. Warm, sweet, plummy, and full; sweetly gracious, though less classic than the best wines of the flight. A mist of primary fruits, here, in attractive style. Dense and tightly woven, solid and firmly constructed, with both prominent acidity and prominent tannin. Good materials from the vineyard, but in this case not a lot of cellar polishing. A satisfying 2015 nonetheless. | 88

Michael Palij | Hedonistic nose of white pepper, bramble, black cherry, and strawberry jam. Palate is absolutely locked on to high tannins fighting gracefully with pronounced red and black fruit, fine acidity, and huge length. This shows structural integrity combined with superb concentration of fruit. Will no doubt continue to evolve. | 96
