Tim Atkin: Mid-straw gold. Old-fashioned, rather developed aromas of honey and spice. Rich, powerful, quite oaky palate, with notes of toffee and butterscotch and raw acidity on the finish. Something of a dinosaur - 12

Stephen Brook: Medium straw; darker than most. Broad, waxy, oaky nose, with some tropicalfruit aromas. Rich and juicy but also a touch heavy and lacking in freshness. Some acidity does cut through the palate and give some length, but it’s still a one-dimensional wine with a foursquare character. Fruity but dogged, and lacking in finesse. Medium length - 14.5

Alex Hunt: On the nose, some ripe stone fruit but a bit flat and mealy, too. Diffuse and pappy in the mouth, like an overripe pear, but then with severe acidity at the end. Hard to love - 12.5
