Very pale in the glass, with elderflower, melon and gooseberry fruit emerging on the nose, which also has a slightly blackcurrant leaf edge. It's lean and hollow on the palate, with slightly sweetened gooseberryish fruit coming through. It's not unpleasant, but does illustrate quite ruthlessly the effect of vintage on England's still wines in particular - 2010 was not one to remember, and I'm afraid nor is this wine.
