Michael Edwards: A broader, more alcoholic wine, but inviting for its expression of ripe fruit in a hot vintage 15
Simon Field: Gingerbread, with hints of litchi. The palate is a little manufactured, quite cleverly, but still leaving anxiety as to whether the edifice may crumble at the least opportune moment 15
Tom Stevenson: Acids are separating from the fruit, which is itself disappearing, leaving artificially high acids rather naked and dry 12
