Another wine to have gone from strength to strength over the past 12 months. It has exceptional complexity, yet the bouquet is a wonderfully smooth amalgam of honey, lemon and buttered toast. The palate, too, is smooth and round, suggesting oak when there is none; simply tangy yet sweet semillon fruit.
