BUY THE WINE

Nicolas Belfrage: Col code 2. Some bubbles on walls of glass, though gas almost undetectable in mouth. Very attractive leesy/buttery character with good side-to-side acidity. Some creaminess of texture as interesting adjunct to hint of CO2. Very attractive cru level. 15.5

Michael Edwards: The warmth and maturity of the vintage is evident. Some acidity too, if a little reductive for the moment. 15

Franco Ziliani: Slightly bitter notes on the nose with orange accent and yeast fermentation accent. The mouth is fresh, with an interesting consistency, but the wine seems too inexpressive and in a “technical” mood. Lack of depth and complexity. 14.5
