Tim Atkin: Mid-lemon straw. Aromatic, leesy, musky fruit notes. Ripe, slightly sweet, high alcohol, lots of oak, and a hint of peanut brittle. High acid finish. Unbalanced. Lateand early-picked combination? Or just a tad dilute? - 13
Stephen Brook: Ripe citrus nose—fresh, too. Good attack, citric and precise, finely tuned and supported by excellent ripe acidity. Lemony and pert, but it doesn’t lack ripe fruit, though in a distinctly cool-climate style. This has elegance and distinction and a long, bracing finish - 17
Alex Hunt: On both nose and palate, this is too dusty and honey-scented. It lacks citrus cut and fullness of fruit, despite a nicely balanced structure - 13
