  March 25, 2018 - Still drinking nicely since I last drank it. Quite a rich style with nougat and tropical fruits, pineapple and banana coming through on the nose and taste. Good quality wine and excellent value at c£14.

  September 4, 2016 - Pale gold colour, aromas of nougat, a hint of honey and oak. A lovely mouth coating, honeyed texture, pineapple and spice greet the taste buds and lingers long after the wine has been drunk. Moved on since I last tasted it.

  October 14, 2015 - A point and delicious, in a pineapple, light oak and meal manner. Nice texture and the wine feels reasonably coherent. Not a blockbuster, but this is well constructed and works well we it food.

  September 20, 2015 - Granny Smith green. Green apples and spice. The palate has a creamy palate, some spice with a bright citrus lift, lots of acidity on the mouth watering finish.

  September 16, 2015 - Currently showing the best it ever has, this wine has developed very well over the past year and comes across as refined, mealy, stoney and muti-dimensional. Very close in style to a fine Chablis.
