  November 17, 2023 - This needed quite a bit of air. Stone fruit, cheese, minerals, peach, gooseberry, slight tropical fruit. Nice acidity, citrus, lemon, tart peach, crushed rocks, and saline notes on the palate. Good finish. Very interesting wine, it’s ripe but also well balanced with nice minerality.

  April 18, 2022 - Very floral on the nose but dry and zesty when you drink it. Certainly one of the most complex whites I have every had. Still not sure about the QPR.

  January 19, 2022 - Pale golden. Citrus, passionfruit, complex gooseberry. Good acid drive. Integrated. Showing a bare hint of richness? Distinctive and quite sophisticated. Very enjoyable over three nights.

  January 18, 2022 - Yellow, tending towards gold. Pretty closed on nose and palate initially. Two hours to open up. Really long. Passionfruit. Citrus. Minerals. Chalk. Really good acidity. It was quite rounded and had a long lanolin-like nose and palate more reminiscent in some ways of a premium (Hunter Valley) Semillon to me at the outset and for more than an hour post double decant into a single bottle decanter. I may have had it a little cold to start maybe.
  After a couple of hours, it swung into a load of extra green fruit - gooseberry, passionfruit and fresh acidity on top - amazing. It was great before, but a little muted or closed. Not at the end - it really shifted up a gear.
