"Combining lovely fruit ripeness with spicy complexity, the wine shows dark plum, smoky bacon, olive and hazelnut characters on the nose. The palate displays rounded mouthfeel and smooth texture, well supported by fine-grained tannins. Medium-full and flavoursome with a lingering juicy finish. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
