BUY THE WINE

Bruno Besa | Lively ruby to pink. Intense, clean, mineral, mature yet elegant red-fruit nose, with red currant, tea leaf, aromatic herbs, hints of rose and violets. Medium to full body, with superb tannic structure, clean red fruit, and a long and complex finish. | 94

Andrew Jefford | One of the palest wines in the tasting so far: translucent mid-red. A little reserved in style aromatically, yet what is there is quite sweet and strawberryish in candied style, with a volatile whiff. Light and a little tenuous for the appellation, though perfectly enjoyable. | 81

Michael Palij | Curious nose; this was the second bottle, still possibly corked, at the very least not on its best form, a medicinal note stripping the wine of some fruit. Finishes withatannic and dusty edge. | 81
