85 Points

Sunday, May 6, 2018 - Light lemon green colour, youthfully colour for a 10 yr old wine!
The pronounced nose belies the colour with clear developed aromas of asparagus, but then there is also herbal hints, bags of lemon, lime & gooseberries.
Lively acidity on entry, juicy with a plethora of lemon, gooseberry, boxwood, tarragon and a twist of asparagus,
Linear in palate shape, the fruit is direct and bright, but the wine is ultimately simple and not going anywhere.
The finish is very lemony yet a little short.
