VOTED "BEST BUDGET WHITE WINE" IN UNCORKED MAGAZINE!
"This is a top vintage for this label, which is always at a give-away price and even cheaper where discounted. Bright, light yellow colour, fine lemon-pith, yeasty young aromas, and a seamless pure-fruit palate makes this irresistible. It has a degree of richness and is quite complex already. A great bargain. Ageing drink now to 2012"
