Andrew Jefford: Bright honey-gold. Ample sweet melon and lemon, with cream and custard for richness. An attractive ensemble, cleanly defined. Neither hugely concentrated nor hugely sweet, but lively, fresh and engaging, and with plenty of allusive force. Perfect aperitif Sauternes, balanced and fresh. Now to 2026. 89
Stephen Brook: Pungent apricot nose, with admirable purity of fruit but not a lot of evident botrytis. Good attack, lean and fresh, with a hint of boiled sweets. Apricot and citrus fruit, delivered by high acidity. Not complex but racy and quite long. 89
