July 25, 2023 - This is better than I remember. Nice balance and a nice passion fruit under tone, petrol on the end. Last time I tried this it was too much passion fruit, maybe the extra year has mellowed it out. Quite good with Asian or Thai food

November 5, 2022 - Decanter Fine Wine Encounter (The Landmark, London): Ripe gooseberry, a little peachy, cream, stone fruit, apple. Juicy, fleshy, a little lozenge quality, creamy textured, very pleasant.

October 28, 2022 - Firstly, this needs at least 15-20 minutes of air to open up (initially it is thin, acidic, mineral).
With air and not too cold the nose is strong white flowers (honeysuckle?), a tart fruit (unripe pineapple?); the palate is crisp, more of the white flowers and citrus, a slightly creamy note mid-palate and then a clean and quite long finish which is crisp and a little minerally.
Overall a pleasant, but not big, white Bordeaux, and OK QPR at the ~US$31 that I paid.
