Full of personality, the 2020 vintage (5*) was estate-grown, fermented with indigenous yeasts in French oak casks (14 per cent new), and barrel-aged for eight months. Light lemon/green, it is sturdy and vigorous, with concentrated, peachy, citrusy flavours, finely integrated oak, excellent complexity, fresh acidity and a lingering, fully dry finish. Drink now or cellar.
