BUY THE WINE

Gerard Basset: Medium-deep yellow. Earthy nose with some spicy notes. Rich and sweet structure, one-dimensional retro-olfaction, medium finish. 14.5

Marcel Orford-Williams: Good nose. Quite complex. Full-bodied, powerful. Good effort. Length and concentration are only moderate, though. 15.5

Roy Richards: First bottle: VA and slightly musty, maybe corked. Second bottle: apricot nose, this is heavily botrytised, very seductive, must be near to SGN. For sipping rather than drinking. 16.5
