Relatively bright deep straw colour, with a restrained but realtively complex nose of lemon, nettles a little honey. All the more impressive at fridge temperature.
The palate is quite subtle and at times verging on watery, with punchy lemony acidity, supported by nettle and the finish is long enough.
All in all not bad, though it was never going to be a ground-shaker.

Surprisingly enjoyable as it seems that it's 3 years overdue for drinking. Fresh, lemony, good bouquet, good body and good length. Soft steely.

CLWS - Members Choice (Civil Service Club, London): Good body, not acidc, indeed feels slightly off-dry. Some grass, some oomph, new world style.
