  Very light in colour. Lovely assertive nose of lime juice, leading swiftly on to copious petrolly aromas. Maybe a bit of pear juice in there too. On the palate very limey, dry and linear. Obviously maturing, but still full of zip. Excellent with Orkney scallops. 12%, screwcap.

  Something funky on the nose. Agree with the acidity comment. Very juicy and tasted fine. Just not sure about the aromatics.

  Yellow gold colour. Complex sweet and bitter flavours: stone fruit (nectarine and apricot), lemon and a back note of burnt orange zest and clove. Tart acid and a long finish. Enjoyed over two days. My notes say I paid $18 at cellar door in Feb 2015. Great value.
