“The 2018 Roberta's Reserve is all elegance, all class. But it is also more reserved than it was a year ago. That's probably a very good thing for its long-term prospects, though. In 2018, the Roberta's is especially fine and understated. I can't wait to taste it in another few years' time. That 2018 retrospective will be here before you know it!”
