BUY THE WINE

Stephen Brook: Medium straw. Lean, precise nose, very tight, lime rather than peach. Rich but fresh, with rather dominant acidity, very mineral, sherbetty. The fruit is not that expressive now, but this tastes youthful and is hard to assess. Still, it seems well structured and with fine potential. Good length. 17

Roy Richards: Discreet, but rich, not much varietal sense, with no change on the second nose. Some CO2, which may be holding back the bouquet. Tight and mineral, with high acidity, but I am unsure where it is going. 15
