Stephen Brook | Muted nose: apple and quince. Light, fresh, and nimble, with an immediate appeal, but there’s little depth or complexity here. Skates along the surface and then tails off. Pleasant but innocuous. Medium length. | 14
Andrew Jefford | Silver-gold. Very stripped back; somewhere between flowers, dough, and cardboard. It’s not far off being an attractive aroma, but it hasn’t quite got there. On the palate, this is another very edgy, raw wine. Assuming whoever made it has done everything correctly, I’m not sure Riesling is totally happy here—it seems a bit chemical and hard. My instinct would be to push for a little more ripeness... | 11.5
Stephan Reinhardt | Pale gold. Perfumed aroma, very floral (soapy) scented aromatic fruit. Elegant and well balanced on the palate, pure, with intense fruit flavors; good length, very reductive and not that easy to score. | 16
