SF | First bottle corked. Second bottle better, but there is still something slightly worrying, a little leafy on the back palate. This compromises the structure and gives the acidity free reign to 'jut out' without much respect for the other components, which is unfortunate. 86
EA | First bottle corked. Pale lemon colour. Refined nose with pristine fruit purity and yeast-derived complexities playfully intermingling with the fruit. Lots of peachy fruit with vanilla and white flowers mixing with a twist of gunpowder and a whiff of woody spiciness. The light yet intense palate is bright and vibrant with a radiant quality to it. Beautifully airy, soft and elegant on the dancingly vivacious palate. Only positive evolution to date promising still some more goodness to come.Drink Dates: 2024 - 2033. 97
JS | 2nd bottle Sweet, toasted, honeyed-hazelnut aromas with sweet red-berry fruit and a rich umami underlay – a touch of bacon fat. Intense, powerful and textured, with the sweetness of fruit, nuts and toasted spices set against a cashmere texture and a persistent line of acidity. Complex and long. 96
