Wine Spectator: The plum, currant and blackberry fruit is well-integrated already, with taut anise, singed spice and apple wood notes. Sleek and refined, lacking the telltale sinew of the vin...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good full red. Shy but very pure nose hints at dried flowers, brown spices and menthol; classic Brunate. Then tight and backward in the mouth, with strong acidity keeping the...
