Alison Buchanan: Now this has some character on the nose. Very ripe; there is a pear/apple fruit-salad combination. Sadly, the palate lets it down. Clean but dull and vaguely cardboardy. There is some hint of a mineral saviour, but really only a hint. Okay, but a little dull. 10.5

Nicolas Belfrage: Straw. Warm, inviting nose of nuts and herbs. Good mouthfeel and fair acidity. A little heavy, fudgy, but drinks well and has reasonable length. 14

Alex Hunt: Very rubbery, herbal aromas. Slightly tired fruit; nice soft texture. Agreeable, but not especially interesting. 13
