BUY THE WINE

Tim Atkin: Pale straw/lemon. Light, elegant, very balanced and nuanced. Sweet, spicy, vanilla oak; subtle citrus fruit; touch of malolactic/ cream to bind the wine together. Well balanced, refreshing, and long. Spice; slight bitterness - 16.5

Stephen Brook: Delicately oaky nose, rich apple fruit. Rich yet fresh, quite rounded, it also has an attractive limpidity and some racy acidity. Not especially concentrated or complex, but juicy and up-front, with a good balance of texture, fruit, and acidity. Quite good length - 15.5

Alex Hunt: Not a lot of aroma here—a sort of soft mineral impression, with a bit of grilled citrus. The palate has nice structure and poise; it’s fullish but refreshing. The flavor focus is lacking, which leads to alcohol appearing on the finish - 14.5
