As for last year. Lovely development, a bit simple, if still very enjoyable. Can be kept, but I think all the improvement is behind it, if you know what I mean. Lots of brown-tinged citrus - very tasty.

Friday at the strand (Strand Cellars, Croydon): Slight cream, honey sits beneath lime and kerosene. Medium plus intensity acidity, those honey and cream notes are joined by a little bitterness but, again, these play 2nd fiddle to the lime and slight kerosene.

{screwcap, 12.5%} Mid yellow. Mature nose, broad yellow citrus and petrol aromas. Medium-full weight palate, with ripe melon, detergent, yellowing apple flavours. Moderate acid, fairly even and full across the palate, but although attractively flavoured, it’s a bit simple, if any criticism is warranted here. Fairly even, medium length finish. Tidy, satisfying wine, but no need to keep further.

Initial smoke and petrol
Smooth, softish texture, wet stone running to lemon. Very long tingly finish

Rubber, petroleum, little bit of lemon grass.
