May 9, 2020 - Beautiful medium golden Color. This wine Is beautifully deceiving. The nose is Very sugary with lots of peach and pineapple and you would think this is a dessert wine. Med acidity, Med alcohol, Med body, pronounced flavours, Med+ finish. Very fruity mouth, a bit creamy and thick, with hay, butter, petrol like tertiary notes. There is some oxidation - just makes it more interesting. I highly recommend all chateau Sixtine wines. And they are very nice people when you visit them so do not hesitate.

November 20, 2016 - This wine has really turned for the worst since last year. Color is now dark gold, very oily, beeswax on the nose. Poured it down the sink

June 17, 2016 - Big and bold oily fruit. Toasty and extremely tasty. Good balance and long long taste. Hard to resist. Love the style but from previous experience with this wine I would drink up soon as it is at its peak right now.

October 17, 2015 - very clear light yellow. Pure white fruit and floral nose. Not a hint of oxidation. Melon, pear, talc and white flowers. Dry pear and flint flavours. Stunning.
