"Another sound edition of this consistent label. If you've followed it you'll know what to expect; aromas of citrus, lemongrass, a touch of beeswax and a hint of creamed honey, the palate quite generous in mouthfeel but held taut by the lemony acidity that runs long into the aftertaste. This vintage is a little more approachable now than some, but it will age well." Steven Creber, Halliday Wine Companion
