Tasting Notes
Jancis Robinson
Score: 16.5 / 20Lovely lift and tangy 'Sauvignon' green aromas (even though this is a 100% Semillon property)*. Hard finish for the moment but real chew and substance and application. * Sorry, this mistake came about because Andre Lurton once gave me a mature sample that tasted SO Semillon-like, as I remarked, and then said, in essence, Ha ha, it's 100% Sauvignon! Gottem wrong way round . Silly me.
Wine Spectator
Score: 89-92 / 100A juicy, up-front style with mouthwatering grapefruit, kiwifruit and straw flavors and a well-integrated salted butter note on the finish.
