Julian B Likes this wine: 92 points
April 7, 2020 - Good wine with racy acidity and a long finish. Prominent lemon barley and white nectarine flavours. However a tendency for lemon pith to outweigh the other flavours on the finish, detracted from my enjoyment.

Thanks for your review. How was this holding up in terms of freshness of fruit and acidity ? Much more time left in the cellar you think? Cheers -

The flavour is more developed than when I first tasted it several years ago, but due to the region's climate it's always going to be more citrus than peach.
If I had another bottle I might have given it 18 months just to wind the acid back a notch. -
