Andrew Jefford: Full gold; gentle mousse. Unhappy aromatic evolution here: closed and a little chemical/stinky. Disappointing, estery palate. NS

Tom Stevenson: I cannot be too harsh score-wise because this is, in itself, rather complete, but it is a little bit too mellow, needing a bit of grip and grace to propel it upward. 17
