Tim Atkin: Pale straw/lemon. Tangy, sweaty, Graves-like notes; Chardonnay blended with some Sauvignon Blanc, perhaps? However, it is appealing, fresh, and minerally, with well-balanced oak, pink grapefruit, and pepper spice. Attractive and fresh, tangy and taut—this should age. Highly unusual wine - 16.5
Stephen Brook: Lively oaky nose; apple and apricot fruit. Lean attack, a bit tart and assertive, with not quite enough fruit to balance the acidity. It does have vigor and drive and some pep, so it’s an attractive style that doesn’t quite deliver the goods. Quite good length - 15.5
Alex Hunt: Very herbal, undergrowthy, almost foxy aromas. Leanly structured and quite powerful, but the hardness of flavor doesn’t sufficiently round out the whole. Overall rather aggressive - 14
