Decanter 2026: Platinum (97 points)

“A fabulous tension of honeyed lemon, lime and blood orange stretches across the nose and palate, weaving its way through the steely mineral acidity. Generous and full with lively sprinkles of fresh tarragon on the length.” DWWA 2026

Pale gold in colour with subtle greenish reflections. Highly aromatic, combining ripe early-autumn pear and apple with delicate notes of patchouli, dried flowers, and dried apricot. Dry on the palate, yet never harsh. The acidity is high, but balanced by a pleasant, silky texture from the alcohol and the ripe, juicy fruit character. The finish is attractively long and savoury, with a subtle touch of oak appearing at the end.
