Alex Hunt | Quite pretty, vivid berry-jelly aromas. Sour palate with a sort of aspartame bitterness on the finish. Feels very manipulated, with attenuated fruit expression. | 81

Andrew Jefford | Deep but limpid black-red. Sweet, fresh, lifted Pinot with some poise and zest to it. Very smooth, indeed almost featureless, in textural terms, with satisfactory fruit, though without the refinements the nose seemed to suggest. Good, drinkable, simple Pinot. | 84

Anthony Rose | Quite evolved in color, now shading to garnet at the rim of the glass. There’s a curious note of hospital wards or T

Catherine Petrie on the nose of this Pinot— possibly proximity to eucalyptus trees—while the evolved fruit has a certain sweetness on the mid-palate and as suppleness of texture, but the tannins are quite dry and rustic on the finish, which brings it up short, and so, in the long run, it lacks the required charm. | 84
