BUY THE WINE

Stephen Brook | Subdued lime nose. Fresh attack, crisp and lifted by fine acidity. A racy style with the acidity balancing the ripe sleek fruit. This has real intensity and raciness, with enough minerality to give grip and texture. This canters through to an excellent and tangy finish. Balanced and very long. | 18

Andrew Jefford | Pale gold. Another of those wines that is, at least at first, slightly dry and scrawny in its aromatic profile; there is apple fruit beneath, but you have to go hunting for it. On the palate, it is very tight, taut, and drawn back, the skin stretched hard over the bone. A bracing apéritif style and quite valid; the fruit is very pure and very long. It would be nice to see some more aromatic development, but the palate is very good. | 16

Stephan Reinhardt | Pale gold. Slightly burned aromas, with lime. Firm and dense, very young, lime-dominated fruit, slightly aggressive (tart) acidity, drying on the finish, rather short. | 13.5
