Quite a rich nose with very bright acidity. More palate weight than previous vintages. Good stuff! Already a fine drink. Lime streak. Stony finish. VGV Drinking range: 2023 - 2025 Rating: 16.5 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Sept 2023)

A delicious chardonnay with a sour lemon, cooked apple and grapefruit undertone. Medium body. Tangy and fruity. Drink now. Screw cap. Rating: 92 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (Oct 2023)
