Tim Atkin: Pale straw. Perfumed, yeasty, boiledsweets nose. A little simple and onedimensional, but it’s an attractive dimension. Fresh, appealing; a touch of cashew nut and green olive, pear and apple. Pleasant, not profound 15
Nicolas Belfrage: 1 = color of water and 9 = deep gold: Col 2.5. Quite intense apple/pear character on nose and palate, penetrating and long. Here the redemption of Arneis, assuming it’s unblended. Has real length and character 15.5
Alex Hunt: This has a very pretty nose of greengage and spring flowers. There’s a little bit of sulfide to resolve, but nothing untoward. The wine seems to find a good balance of expression and drinkability, and there’s good length, though not great complexity 15
