Score 92/100 · Drink 2021-2037, Neal Martin, Nov 2019

The 2018 Rocking Horse is much fresher and more defined than the Tin Soldier and Paper Kite on the nose, offering lovely pressed flower, lanolin, orange blossom and jasmine aromas. The well-balanced palate is poised and focused, with a crisp line of acidity and orange zest and hints of white peach on the persistent finish. Excellent.

Cool and fresh. Good fruit impact on the front palate. A little astringent on the end. But masses of fruit on the way there. Should satisfy if drunk with food. (JR)
