Overview

Andrew Jefford: Mid-gold; sustained mousse. Soft floral notes; gentle autolysis; subtle cream. A disarmingly lovely nose of great nuance and subtlety. The perfect mélange of fruit, quiet vegetal notes, and the richness of yeast, cream and coffee. Vivid, fresh wine in the mouth, but without quite the organizational harmonies the aromas suggested; it’s very light and dancing on its feet, very graceful, but petite. Nonetheless delicious! 16.5

Tom Stevenson: Extremely lactic! 12.5
