Media Reviews

Tina Gellie, Anne Krebiehl MW, Michaela Morris

Pristine, clean and vibrant, crisp apples, fresh peaches and lemon. Restrained but complex, the oak doesn`t override, leaving pure fruit at the core. Lovely brightness and freshness with some evolution. A pithy, bright verve draws out leesy creaminess on the finish. Very handsome wine. 92 points

Andy Howard MW

A very successful wine this vintage, with its mineral notes and finesse illustrating the cooler character of the vintage. Saline and creamy on the palate with fine integration of oak, peach and pear fruit and an intriguing lime zest note, all kept fresh and focussed with lingering, cleansing acidity. Give this a couple of years and then enjoy. 94 points
