BUY THE WINE

Tim Atkin: Mid-lemon straw. Complex nose, with some spice and reduction. Bright, minerally acidity, subtle oak integration, good freshness, a touch of sweetness, and nuance and length. Well framed with refreshing acidity. Should develop further. Lovely, rich-textured Chardonnay, with a hint of orange peel - 17.5

Stephen Brook: Medium straw. Rich, stewed-apricot nose; lacks freshness and poise. Plump, rounded, fruity but heavy, with no nuances or vigor. There’s a kiss of acidity, which may well be added, but no real persistence or precision. Fairly short - 13

Alex Hunt: Ripe yet quite subtle on the nose, with some peachy depth. Excellent density and harmony on the palate, with cleansing acidity balancing the generous but not overbearing fruit - 16
