Daniel Torres — Good but not blown away

6/10

Bit pricey for what it is honestly. It's well made and the finish is clean, but for nearly £27 I've had Portuguese reds that excited me more. Would probably pick something else at that price point.

Maxwell Green — Expected more for the price

5/10

Saw this on a restaurant wine list and ordered it. It's fine — nice enough acidity and a clean finish — but nothing really grabbed me. Maybe I caught it on a bad night or it needed more time to breathe. Wouldn't rush to reorder.

Mia Sundberg — Great with a steak night

8/10

We had this with ribeyes on Saturday and it was perfect. Loved how it's firm and fruity but also has this real freshness to it. Smells amazing straight out of the bottle too. Going to stock up on a few more for summer barbecues.
