What's in the glass: Nova Syrová is back after a three-year hiatus and tasting as joyously oddball as ever. There’s quite a bit to unpack here, with notes of brooding stalky smoke and dank herb amongst the wash of bright cherry-lift red fruit aromas. En bouche, a soft approach - quite a juicy little number, give it a chill if you like - but loaded with vibrant flavours in a fascinating weave a bit like a black cotton knit sweater with a parrot and floral motif from Olivia Newton-John’s private collection (pictured). In other words, timeless, ultimately indescribable, and utterly irresistible. 93 pts. Kasia Sobiesiak, The Wine Front
