85/100
Interesting wine made in a an off/dry style and now showing some attractive toasty flavours from bottle age although the mineral and citrus primary fruit characters are still very evident. The wine achieves a good balance with a dry-ish finish. Fairly restrained and very drinkable now but with development potential.
