BUY THE WINE

Jamie Goode | This is pure, crisp, and lemony, with some refined white-peach richness. There are some pithy hints here, and an appealing stoniness, too. Shows a taut, linear style, with good acid and purity, and potential for development. | 91

Peter Richards | Pale, fairly pure but also engaging. Hard to single out individual aromas here, seems appley fresh but warm earth also emerges. That said, it’s still inviting. Lovely palate structure and presence. It’s not at all shouty but it grabs the attention, lovely pure acidity, moreish and foodie. Flavors are neither sweet nor savory, somewhere in between. It’s vivid but also reticent, makes you think. Beautiful wine in an individual style. “Mineral” would be the best way to describe it, inscrutable but intriguing and a really lovely glass of wine, too. Give it some age. | 93

David Williams | There’s a natural energy in this far northern Chardonnay, a clarity of fruit and acidity that is analogous to those clear northern skies, and which has a Chablis-like way with its pristine green-apple fruit and minerally raciness. | 92
