March 21, 2023 - Waxy lemons, honeysuckle, white peach and lemon grass notes stand out here in the perfume and on the soft, creamy, yellow and orange citrus palate, with its sweet, white peach accents. Drink from 2023-2032.

March 6, 2023 - UGCB tasting Bordeaux 2020 Walkaround tasting so in general just short notes (Beurs van Berlage, Amsterdam.): Beautifully ripe white fruits like apple and pear. A firm dose of beautiful oak, beautiful acidity and the great length with a tiny bit of sweetness makes this wine a great pleasure to drink. 92+

March 6, 2023 - The 2020 vintage UGCB tasting in Amsterdam 03/06/2023 (Amsterdam): A hint of peach and pear, super fresh, juicy and tasty, good bitters and a lovely, balanced aftertaste; a joy to drink and, at this level, a surprise for me.

January 9, 2023 - (83% Sauvignon Blanc, 17% Sémillon, 13.7% Alkohol) Frische, kräuterige Nase, Zitrusfrüchte, dezente Reduktion, steinige Noten. Knackig und frisch im Gaumen, trotz Alkohol wirkt der Wein frisch und hochelegant. Saftiges, sehr langes Finale. (Verkostet am 8. November 2022 in Zürich) www.vvwine.ch

November 25, 2022 - White Bordeaux is in ultimate heaven in Pessac / Graves. Semillion makes such a mark on density, exotic essence , and richness. Flavors and aromas of yellow apple, dry gooseberry, Malura fruit, lemon curd, dry blood orange, Bosc pear, field grass, and warm banana Foster. Mouth filling, warm weight, modest acidity. Very satisfying… just lacks a bit definition and crisp acidity. At $59 a bit overpriced for the experience.
