January 7, 2015 - Great value here, and peaking now. The colour is now a deeper lemon, and the nose is pronounced. Initially, there is a massive nose of honey, and tropical fruits (candied pineapple) , but with more aeration you get a much more complex nose of limes( think Rose's Lime Cordial), green apples, hints of coconut, delicate floral aromas, and an earthy mineral backnote. On the palate the acidity is only medium, and definitely off-dry. There are flavours of green apples, honeyed apricots, and citrus. The finish is medium. This wine has plenty of weight to accompany food, but the relatively low acidity may shorten its drinking window.

October 19, 2014 - A nose of sweet citrus and honey, medium golden in color. A medium to full bodied white, with apple, honey, minerals, good acidity and spice on long finish, very refreshing. www.winelx.com

September 9, 2014 - very clear, off green. Nose of flowers and Nana's talcum powder, beeswax without overt fuel oil. Taste, sweet, peach and honeysuckle apple and something else on the exhale. I wish I could accurately define that note because it's a welcome one. light/medium in intensity. actually not a sweet wine, probably off-off dry. needs some more acidity to give this some definition but as an evening companion this is absolutely in the zone.

May 9, 2014 - Mid gold, green tints. Honey and apple nose. Sweetness definitely in retreat. Finer, more mineral. Green apples, light honey, touch of lime, decent length. Acidity quite adequate though never going to be marked.
