June 27, 2021 - Deep golden. Nose mostly a honey-type note. Good (slightly too prominent) acidity and mouthfeel. Not much fruit left. Maybe a hint of apples. A touch perhaps of lemons. It is quite honied. Some spice from the oak still evident. Medium length. I did enjoy this, at this age. Well made.

September 17, 2018 - Golden yellow in color, the nose offers orange, honey and light, citrus notes. Fully mature, the fruit is starting to fade, still, you find enough, sweet, yellow fruits and tart apple to keep you busy.

April 10, 2018 - UK Wine Forum 2004 Bordeaux (Piccolino, Exchange Square, London): Lovely bright medium gold. Nose is fresh with grassy notes and grapefruit to the fore, spice too. Medium full bodied with attractive weight and nice contrasting fresh acidity carrying a good/very good length finish. ****

December 25, 2017 - Colour is golden. Nose is dead, with a stir there’s some mushroom and petrol. The palate has quite a lush, oily texture with limes, pineapple and lemon zest on the finish. Really past it’s best but drinkable nonetheless.

June 21, 2017 - 3/4. Medium gold - quite advanced. Exotic nose - tropical fruit, butter, rich but fresh. Medium/full bodied, attractively weighted, ripe tropical fruits, vibrant acids, light oxidative edge, touch of honey on the creamy, persistent, fresh finish. Drinking now and for the next couple of years maybe.
