BUY THE WINE

Gerard Basset: Medium-deep green-yellow. Candied, stony fruit, with some fresh flowers. Rich and sweet structure, but not cloying. Strong baked fruit on the palate, medium finish. 14

Marcel Orford-Williams: Quite sweet, full flavour, good middle, some length. Attractive enough. 15

Roy Richards: Reflets verts in the robe, gentle, honeyed nose. A bit sweet and dull on the palate. Would welcome more life. 11
