Soapy, lemon citrus - took awhile to integrate, but when it did, minerally elegance.

My first wine from this region and its quite impressive. Long and complex. Amazing nose of tropical fruit and petrol. Earthy, with a hint of vegetal aromas. Balanced with a lovely acidity. quite impressive. this needs a few more years in the bottle.

Utrolig mineralsk, konsentrert og lang. Erketypisk chenin blanc. En vin jeg virkelig koser meg med - et herlig alternativ til all denne rieslingen og chardonnayen man tyller i seg til vanlig...

Very nice; a core of honey-drenched quince and apricot fruit with more savoury earthy and wooly notes around the fruit. It's very rich and sweet with a round, slightly creamy mouthfeel, finishing with good length but coming across a little too soft.

Had to decant, because of a bit of sulfur on the nose. But after an hour or so, it openned up. Good, very chalky flavors

Tonight's gonna be a good night (Ah Orh): Sweet orange peels, mango puree. Good body. Feels viscous n thick n sweet till cloying but when tasted it's teasingly sweet. Homey suckled haven. Caramel toffee shows up.

Dinner at Ah Orh, aka - A Wonderful Night of Serious Wines (Ah Orh Seafood, Bukit Merah): A superb wine. This stood toe to toe with the amazing Sherry that preceded it. Golden-yellow in colour, with a distinctive nose of wafting orange peel smells, some fresh wooly socks, and maturing secondary tones of mushrooms, dried mangoes, wolfberries and red dates along with rich chrysanthemum tea and white flower scents. With time, some earthy mineral scents start emerging. Really nice - this could only be a top-end Loire. We were wondering whether it was a Huet Vouvray, before settling on a Quarts de Chaume. The palate was deceptively young though, with most of us guessing mid-90s. It had a wonderful balance. Off-dry, creamily textured, with some sweetness and a little caramel creme note on the attack, but it was also absolutely singing with perfectly integrated acidity that just kept the wine lithe and focused throughout. Wonderfully deep, delicious flavours too - lemon cream at the fore, and then peach, nectarine and dried lychees, moving into a super-long honeyed finish layered with serious mineral notes. Beautiful. A very complex, very complete wine. Great to drink now, but I can only imagine at getting better and better as the years go by. Given the balance and the sugars, this could be well nigh indestructible.

When I first opened this I thought it was dead and oxidized. Now that it has been able to breath for 4 hours it is starting to come to life. It still has a slightly oxidized hint to it, but the fruit and funky chenin flavors are showing themselves. I am not sure what to pair this with but it is an interesting wine to drink.

Written off as flawed 7 months ago, yet recorked and forgotten in back of fridge until last night. Well, just how long can an opened bottle of dessert wine keep in the fridge? At least this long. Whatever was wrong before has come right. Which means it could not have been corked after all. Maybe it should have been decanted and given some patience. Or saved for the company of wine people.

Straw yellow color. Aromas of tropical fruit and petrol. Well balanced with good acidity and freshness. Nice complexity and depth on both the mid palate and finish. 13% alcohol. What a great bargain at $13.99/bottle and by a land slide my personal best QPR of the year. BTW that Nowak guy wouldn't know a good wine if it hit him in the face, Jane on the other hand helps bring up the average :)

Beguiling nose of pineapple and honey; palate of pineapple, some tropical fruit, minerals, good acidity (despite 03 vintage), and great balance. There is no fat sense at all.

Consumed over two nights. Best the second night.

Complex nose of lanolin, beeswax; palate of dried honey, plays against fleeting sense of sweet honey, good acidity, minerals, tropical fruits, long finish. Great chenin.

(at The Modern – NYC) From 375ml. Young unformed and slightly anemic. Pear is the primary characteristic. Not nearly as complex or complete as other vintages I have had, but this is still a baby. (89+?)

Drank last night before and after the Ballet. Big disappointment. Light salmon color. Excellent nose of yeast, pear and citrus. The palate did not live up to the nose. It was thin, under-ripe, herbal, and short. Not flawed, just not good.

Served lightly chilled, notes taken about an hour after opening. Nose and palate are consistent with previous notes. This is a delicious wine that has a long life ahead of it.

Day 2, one glass left. The nose has developed some raisin notes, the palate is still full of complexity with a nice acidic foundation that holds it all together very well.
