grass, lemon, apples and a metallic, oily quality, some flowers and minerals, fresh and ripe, not overblown, and in fact very nicely balanced. Ripe apples, lemon curd, a touch of acacia honey, nice length. Modern and clearly new world in style but with poise and elegance. Slate, chalk and clay... Really nice but perhaps not to everyone's likely. 64+/100
Jono Beagle's hundred point scoring system.
0-29/100 not worth bothering with
30-49/100 good wine but I wouldn't buy a case
50-59/100 very good showing grape and terroir character
60-69/100 excellent example of a wine from this country/region/grape
70-85/100 one of the very best wines that the region has to offer.
86-100/100 one of the very best wines you are ever likely to drink
