Jasper Morris:
"Pale in colour. The bouquet shows much more apple than citrus. Good yield here. On the palate the fruit is that much riper, the apples being joined by some plums and a suggestion of peach. Acidity is fully folded into the fruit, in a pleasingly long finish. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Oct 2025."
