Tim Atkin: Very pale straw; slight spritz. Closed aromas, with some evidence of sulfur. Faintly cabbagy palate, with high acid. Not much texture or concentration here. Inoffensive, but this is a rather conservative wine - 13
Stephen Brook: Slightly vegetal nose, implying a lack of ripeness. Lean and tart, rather hard-edged, less vegetal than the palate but still suffers from a lack of ripeness, flesh, and depth. It does have some zest, but that’s not enough to sustain the wine. Medium length - 13
Alex Hunt: Sharp, simple, bilious nose. Lean, green palate. This is a sort of basic Petit Chablis style - 11.5
