In 2019, what an extraordinary, magical bouquet of sheer class, ripeness and allure. On the palate, it is the refinement and the sweetness, combined with the elegant, silky texture that astonish. Just when you think you have reached the end of the experience, the flavour goes off again like the second stage of a rocket, enfolding you in enchantment. This is a chef d'oeuvre and remains an absolute landmark in my wine-drinking life. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
