Andrew Jefford: Full honey-gold. Heavy, rather torpid aromas, but plenty of sweetness on offer. On the palate, this is a big blanket of lush sweetness with some acidity to balance, but not much palpable oak or botrytis. Fair. Now to 2022. 84
Stephen Brook: Murky nose, with hints of cooked stone fruits, and thus lacks some freshness. Good attack, with a silky texture but one-dimensional fruit. This lacks drive and complexity but the palate is more attractive than the nose. Moderate length. Unexciting. 85
