 Tasted by Zweder on 11/4/2023 & rated 90 points: Some nutty flavors, minerals, full bodied and tasty with good and fresh acidity. (387 views)
 Tasted by FrbC on 7/20/2022 & rated 94 points: Creamy with heaps of lime, honey, minerality and tropical fruits. Finishes dry and long. Excellent! (1531 views)
 Tasted by JensAgo on 6/4/2022 & rated 93 points: First time with this great wine. Light goldish, transparent in appearance. Nose is very much about citrus - plenty of lemon, touch of lime, somewhat sweetish and tropical fruit notes to add complexity. Palate is medium+-bodied, superbly rich, honey and tropical fruits, lime and distinct acidity keeping freshness. 30+ sec finish! (1185 views)
 Tasted by richard.presser on 4/27/2022 & rated 90 points: A wonderful example of Hunter Semillon. At 8 years, still a teenager. Beginning to show some bottle development but just a hint of its future. Needs another 5 years before disturbing another bottle. It will be beautiful old example. (1220 views)
 Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 11/24/2021: Still very pale and unevolved. The nose has a whiff of buttered toast and some lemon. The palate is so direct, cool and linear. It oozes citrus and has a light grassiness and a suggestion of mint. It is so focused and long and just may live forever under screwcap. (1689 views)
