Andrew Jefford | Soft, pale gold. Honeyed spices and gingery depths here, together with the late autumn, moistly sticky presence that true late-harvest wines have (though this is only 17g/l). On the palate, it seems to run on its sugar a little, and turn a little fl abby in comparison with the very best. Not much marrow here, though it makes pleasant sipping. | 84

Charles Metcalfe | A noticeably gold note to the color here. It’s opulent, with a rather exotic bouquet. It does have this slightly oxidative character, with bright acidity, good, reined-in, rose-petal and litchi flavors. The finish is soft and seductive, but still enlivened by good acidity. More evolved than I would have expected, but exotically appealing. | 90

Jancis Robinson | Bright gold. Hint of wet wool on the nose. Satin smooth texture and some green streak keeps this from falling over. A hint of the glucose drink Lucozade. Not the finest, but there is interest here. Drink 2016–20. | 87
