Score 17/20 · Drink 2012-2019, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Mar 2015
86% barrel fermented, 8 months in oak, 7% MLF. Super-ripe pineapple and toffee apple on the palate. Great floury texture and a good bolt of acidic line. Bright, smoky, complex and not too powerful – though there is an undeniable alcoholic kick on the finish. (RH)
