Bruno Besa | Pale straw. A touch closed and restrained on the nose, with yellow and white fruits and intense mineral undertones. Open, ripe golden-apple palate, with fresh herbs and a crushed stones finish. | 90

Andrew Jefford | Bright steel-gold. More pear and cream here, with a little less fresh grape and apple than most. Intense, gathered, searching, and good; this wine has ambition, and its pear, apple, and cream charm is incontrovertible. A totally delicious mouthful for drinking while the flesh of youth still clings to it, yet with seriousness, depth, and drive behind. | 89

Michael Palij | Very high levels of SO2 combined with notes of boiled sweets and stewed fruit render this deeply unpleasant. | 75
