Lemon and lime dominate the nose, there’s a little undertone of yeasty bread. Opens really fresh and zingy on the palate, there’s crunchy green apple and lime juice. Really pure flavours. Lots of zingy acidity. Great depth all the way through the palate - finishes with a lovely lemon curd flavour. Really liked this.

Big, powerful nose with aromas of lemon tart and wholemeal toast. Creamy textured and quite rich on the palate, but enough acidity to keep it well balanced. Long and layered, there’s popcorn, more lemon and a lingering butterscotch flavour on the finish. These are lovely. Shame that was my last one.

This is lovely. Powerful and expressive. Aromas of lemon and chamomile and then this really comes alive on the palate. There’s pithy lemon on the entry, rounds out through the palate with stone fruits coming through before a cleansing bitter noise on the long finish. Great!
