A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: This has very attractive aromas of ripe peaches with hints of lemons and grapefruit and a flinty edge. The palate has a thread of gently toasted hazelnuts through fresh lemons and peaches. So fresh and fleshy with lots of fruit on offer. Drink now. Score - 93 (jamessuckling.com, April 2, 2020) |
