Drink 0-0, Neal Martin, Feb 2021

I opened two bottles of the 2018 Ave Marie from Restless River, as I felt that the first had a lovely waxy nose but a very slight taint on the palate. The second was, conversely, a bit smudged on the nose and just lacked a little harmony and complexity. I will not judge this for now but hope to retaste it again at a later stage.

Tasted from a 20-cl sample bottle like all these Restless River samples so I am unable to cite the alcohol levels. Much riper nose than the 2017 and altogether a much better balanced wine whose high acidity is nicely balanced by almost balletic slimline fruit. Not an ounce of fat on this wine but you could drink it already – and it should age well. (JR)
