    August 20, 2021 - White flowers and herbs with a nice balance of acidity, minerality and some toastieness from the oak. Dense on the palate and rich mouthfeel.

    August 11, 2020 - Honey with just a touch of acidity and glorious sweetness. Straw on the palate and the nose. Apricot, stone fruit but also sweet ammonia (although not unpleasant). Oak throughout although subtle. Enjoyed with a shrimp paella but even better with cheese and crackers for dessert. Not far off some semi-sweet dessert wines although not oppressively a “sweet” white in any respect.

    February 20, 2020 - The nose is nothing special. But nice floral notes on the palate. Some minerality, lemon zest. Very pleasing.
