BUY THE WINE

Gerard Basset: Light green-yellow. SO2 at first. Quite mineral at aeration. Ripe structure, baked fruit in retro-olfaction, medium finish. 13.5

Marcel Orford-Williams: Sulphur on nose. Full flavour. Basic material is good but hampered by the appearance of high sulphur. Lacks brilliance. 13.5

Roy Richards: Reductive: burnt notes and SO2 - this also dominates palate, making it a bit unclean. Not its day. Tried another bottle: the same. 10
