Wine Critics Notes:

Allen Meadows - Score: 90-93 (2016 Jun.)

There is a hint of matchstick character that melds with the fresh citrus and white orchard fruit aromas. I very much like the underlying sense of tension to the almost painfully intense medium-bodied flavors that also possess a borderline aggressive salinity before culminating in a strikingly persistent and quite firmly structured finale. Note that at least some patience will be required for this to unwind as it's presently very tightly wound.

Jencis Robinson - Score: 17/20 (2016 Jan.)

Smoky nose. Very juicy. Lots of excitement. Racy and fruity. Super appetising. Bravo!
