"I like the earthiness here, with notes of fresh truffles mingling with the sour cherry and blueberry fruit. Some lemon rind, too. It's juicy and open with a medium body, fine tannins and citrusy acidity. Drink from 2026."

"Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. Impressive minerality on the nose and with subtle, concentrated, red-fruit notes and wild strawberry. Great acidity streamlining the red fruit and with a nice bite of tannins on the finish, while the fresh fruit rules. (WS)"

"The wine showcases a nuanced array of dusty mixed red berries, including the distinctive note of strawberry tops and a savory, meaty quality. This combination is underpinned by firm tannins that give the wine a solid structure and promise potential for aging. Drink now–2040.. —J.P"
