Judges Selection [GFW21]

2021 Global Fine Wine Challenge

88 | Opens with lemongrass, dried herbs, spearmint aromas. Round and crisp, slightly linear. Very vegetal in profile. Good length.

94 | Pear drop, lemon glacé, herbaceous aromas. Well concerted and sweet fruited wine with supple textures and fresh long acidity

88 | Light floral and yeast esters on the nose. Palate soft with attractive lemon zest, tropical fruits and light toasty flavours persisting.

94 | A composed, harmonious aroma. The palate is textural and inviting with gentle lemon butter flavours. There is a faint savoury undercurrent which gives the wine depth.
