BUY THE WINE

Alison Buchanan: Cat’s-pee and redcurrant nose. Attractive balance of citrus and tropical fruit on both nose and palate. Very ripe, it lacks a central focus, particularly on the rather lethargic finish. 11

Alex Hunt: Very mineral-citrus style. Tightly wound confit-lemon fruit on the palate. A very unusual Sauvignon, and a successful one to boot. Fresh, taut, with myriad potential food matches. Beautifully balanced and marvellously composed. 17.5
