| TASTING NOTE: Following the success of the 2022 vintage first listed at Waitrose, the 2023 doesn't disappoint. The aromas entice of their own accord, suggesting hot stones baking under the Greek sun, with a squeeze of lemon, mint and crushed rock. There are florals too: white blossom, jasmine, beguiling and fragrant. The palate is succulent and tasty, combining florals with a zesty citrus zing and line of clear, mineral freshness. Lots of clarity here, and lots to like, this is a wine to impress your Mum with, with its really fresh and dry finish. I'd pair it with shellfish, or a mint and parsley tabbouleh. Drinking window: 2024-2027. Score - 92 (Natalie Earl, decanter.com, April 16, 2024) |
