Richard Mayson: Touch of CO2 spritz; ripe apples and lemon-zest; very clean and steely-minerally fruit, softening up mid-palate to reveal a fuller finish, still offset by steely acidity. Lovely balance. 15.5
Charles Metcalfe: Rich, aromatic, nose of depth and weight. Well combines citrussy fruit, intensity, and some minerality. There’s a sense of the earth on which these grapes were grown. Very good balance, freshness, and intensity. Still young, with potential for development in the bottle. 16
Joanna Simon: Delicate toasted-wheat and sappy fresh nose. Sappy pear fruit and briny mineral notes flow through the palate, the oak and acidity underpinning. Firm, fresh, mineral finish. 17
