"Novello. Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. At first, a little closed and saline and minerally rather than fruit driven. This wine demands time in the glass and your attention. Then, a subtle perfumed raspberry rises up from the glass. Fluid and subtle raspberry fruit, juicy and elegant, and with a spine of firm tannins. Another year in bottle won’t go amiss, and it deserves it."
— Walter Speller, 2025
