April 29, 2001 - A medium greenish gold. Light and very fruity on the nose - nicely fragrant with distinct elderflower notes. Good fresh attack. Lots of fruit. Fills very well. Lots of interest - I rather like the Bacchus grape. Very pleasant indeed, but also with some character and depth. Very Good Indeed.

July 2, 2000 - "Best English wine of 1998. Gore-Brown trophy; Jack Wood Silver Salver and Dudley Quirk trophy"
A pale, slightly lemony straw. Nice fresh nose - grassy and herbaceous, possibly slightly floral. Very light attack. Clean and crisp with fresh herbaceous green fruit, even maybe a bit lettuce-y flavours. Clean and fresh all the way through. No great depth or complexity. But very fresh and clean and it has plenty of charm. Lighter tasting than a 12%. Very Good.
