BUY THE WINE

Alison Buchanan: Pale gold in colour. The nose here suggests that it is taking no prisoners. It has a piercing intensity but sadly is not wholly clean reflected on palate. Yuck – essence of cardboard and floppy with it. 5

Nicolas Belfrage: Delicately perfumed, subtly aromatic in the mouth, good balance, dry. Very nicely made of the type – great apéritif wine. 14.5

Alex Hunt: Unusual nose: spicy, musky, but ultimately too much like damp wool to be enjoyable. Bitter and fruitless, this may have been better two years ago. 7
