BUY THE WINE

Stephen Brook: Medium straw. Rich, spicy nose, flamboyant and assertive, white peach. Rich, broad, peachy, with reasonable concentration, good fruit and growing minerality on the finish, but a touch foursquare. This has ample fruit but lacks some lift to carry it through on the finish. Quite good length. 16.5

Roy Richards: Patchouli, rather special evolution. Elegant and perfumed on the palate despite a sensation of oiliness. Sui generis, good. 16.5
