BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford | Very pale steel-gold. Plenty of aromatic presence, but with slightly disconcerting allusions due to a little initial reduction. This clears quickly to suggest sweet pear and angelica. Lively, fresh, poised, concentrated: a wine with deep and searching acidity but plenty of nuanced fruit prettiness, too, in the pear/quince/dessert-apple spectrum. | 90
