Tenuta Mara Guiry 2021

Zara Al-Hassan — Solid Italian red

7/10

Got this for a dinner party and it went down well. Nice structure to it, not too heavy despite being 14%. A couple of guests commented on it which doesn't happen often. Would buy again but wouldn't say it blew my mind.

Tyler Bennet — Nice find from Tenuta Mara

7/10

Saw this on a restaurant menu and ordered a bottle to try. For 14% ABV it's surprisingly elegant — I was expecting something heavy and jammy but it's actually quite focused and bright. Tracked down a bottle to have at home and it held up just as well. Fair price too.

Mei-Lin Wu — One of my favourite reds this year

9/10

I keep coming back to this wine. There's a real depth and complexity to it that you don't usually get at this price point. Every sip gives you something a bit different. Had it with pizza, with pasta, with cheese — works with everything. Absolutely loved it.
