Sparkling in the bouquet, little apricot as well. The wine is a little oxidised; tastes a little like sherry. The aftertaste is short. Even though I do not think this is an off bottle I do not score this wine.

The wine needs some time to open up. Some petrol, full bodied, citrus, bitterness, little sweetness. These tastes come in this order. It is a pleasant, but somewhat heavy wine.
Very special bouquet; wet towels, sweat, and … some honey. Full bodied, fat, plenty of alcohol. No acidity or bitterness in the aftertaste at all, but just a little sweetness. Heavy wine. Lacks freshness.
Pity, not much notes, but just for the record: Nice perfume, fresh with a little sweetness. Long aftertaste. Very nice to drink if you like the hint of sweetness.

Acidity and vegetables in the bouquet. In the mouth dry and a little sparkling. Sour apples in the aftertaste.

Honey and apricot in the bouquet. Fresh and a very little apple in the taste. A very pleasant wine, with unfortunately a short aftertaste.

Not a very expressive bouquet. On the palate honey, apple and thyme. Full bodied.
