Critics Ratings

'Youthful colour suggests a wine that is 10 years younger, still showing a green tone. The freshness continues in the lively, green-fruited aromas that include Granny Smith, fresh lime and peach kernel. Although the palate is broad and complex, with an added layer from the new oak, the most remarkable characteristic is the mouth-watering verve. This almost has a cool-climate like focus, luminated by an acid spine that will keep going for another decade.' - Higgo Jacobs 2020, 95/100

'First impression is French oak, then a creamy, honeyed citrus depth. Amazing concentration. Penetrating and long and rich but not fat. Embryonic.' - Julia Harding MW, Jancisrobinson.com, 17.5/20 (2012)
