93/100 55

A firmer structure than the past two vintages is a function of the season but the wine is elegant and appealing with sufficient fruit sweetness to balance the tannins. Pisa Range have one of the most consistent and recognisable styles of all the wineries featured in this tasting (written with three to go).
