BUY THE WINE

Stephen Brook: Firm, mineral nose, not giving much away now, very reserved. Very sweet, has an appealing purity and better acidity than some; well balanced but still lacks some flair. Quite good length. 15.5

Andrew Jefford: Vivid green-gold. Big charge of free sulphur. Underneath, though, the creamy peach fruits are just waiting to let rip. Real sense of brimming ripeness here. Lively, clean, keen, less sugar-laden than some, with magnificently ripe and energetic acid structure lending the wine a kind of gymnastic grace. Very classic, graceful and enchanting. 17

Jancis Robinson: Quite hot and open on the nose without enormous intensity. Opulent fruit and a bit glucose drink-like. No enormous subtlety. Drink 2008-15.15
