TONY ASPLER / 90-points / TRY - Pale straw in colour with a lime tint; honeyed grapefruit with a note of petrol on the nose; light-bodied, dry, minerally, just off-dry grape fruit flavour with a touch of bitterness on the finish.

TASTING NOTE: Produced from the estate's oldest vines, this is a worthy reserve. This wine shows impressive depth and intensity, with powerful fruit flavors led by Satsuma orange and Meyer lemon. There's a touch of spice and an underlying minerality. A sensational value ... Editors' Choice. Score - 94 (Paul Gregutt, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2018) |
