Henry of Pelham Speck Family Reserve starts with lifted notes of lemons, limes, and spring blossoms. Elegant with an alluring mineral texture and persuasive tension, the zesty acidity is balanced by just enough sweetness. It has a very long finish and a high concentration of flavours; think of a cross between lemon curd and key lime pie. Brilliant in its youth, savour extra bottles to enjoy as this youthful wine evolves over the coming years.
