Croquet King Likes this wine: 89 points
April 27, 2015 - A very pleasant wine to drink.
Sealed under stelvin, the colour has started going golden.
Nose and palate dominated by citrus and sherbet. Acid still there and in balance. -

December 31, 2008 - As noted, petrolly, minerals, very austere. A decent wine but a little too technical and not as charming as the Alsatians whose style they seem to be trying to emulate. Perfectly nice as a food wine though, and I'd certainly drink it again without complaint.

December 29, 2008 - Bright light colour, green tinge. Wet stone nose, hints of petrol, possibly some gooseberry! Palate is austere and a little flat/green in the middle although picks up with a good minerally finish.
The mid palate and nose had filled out with limes and a hint of lemon on day two. In actual fact, the wine was a step up from yesterday all round - 90 points so I'll give an average of 89.
