Stephen Brook: Fresh lime nose. Medium-bodied, rather slack, this lacks some bite and vigor. Straightforward and certainly not lacking in fruit, but the acidity is modest, and this doesn’t leave much of a footprint. An apparently rather lazy effort. 13.5

Simon Larkin: Floral, with a note of peach, apricot, and sherbet on the nose. The palate shows a broad swathe of fruit, fine-tuned, rich, with notes of more tropical fruit. There is a fine sense of proportion here, as well as admirable persistence. Notes of honeyed fruit emerge, with a lively, taut acidity. A fine effort, with plenty of class and a marked minerality. 14.5

Andreas Larsson: A bit closed on the nose. Youthful and vibrant on the palate; very fresh, with young fruit and some lemony notes. Nicely made but a bit short. 13
