Andrew Jefford | Pale mid-gold. Exuberant lifted spice and soft honey behind, over becomingly peachy fruits: a super scent. Honeydew melon adds to the fun. Juicy, full, and exuberant, with that honeydew flavor well to the fore; glycerous and rich; and then plenty of spice hidden in the 26g/l sugars. A generous Gewurz of ample personality and flesh, but well balanced by its spice and its alcohol. | 90

Charles Metcalfe | Dark, restrained, litchi aromas. This is young and quite closed, but it does have good elements and should develop. Acidity is good, and balances other structural elements well. It has a creamy texture and good sweetness level; it just needs time. | 88

Jancis Robinson | Deep straw. Rather sweet and simple on the nose, with the merest hint of struck match. Something a little, and not unpleasantly, vegetal about this. Sweet start and then quite tingly and energetic on the end, so that the whole is not unbalanced. But this is the sort of medium-sweet wine that can be difficult to place in a drinking context. Clean finish. Drink 2017–21. | 89
