  March 10, 2023 - Bob’s cellar. Golden bright yellow. Golden sweet nose with some lemony lime backing, oily and full. Flavours are same, no mustiness, lime sharpness still there, unpins some pithy sweetness but still mainly an aged intensity. Good. A couple of days later still good but this has fallen over the edge. Last bottle so good timing - drink up if you have it.

  December 22, 2022 - Bob's cellar. Golden yellow, tending to pale brown. Honeyed nose, aged, marmalade orange rind, almost no acidity present, warm, interesting. Taste is preserved lemon hints, aged honey, acidity comes through and it presents as a little over the hill? Warms up and and although the age is there, the acidity in the form of a muted lemon zest (more on the preserved lemon side) comes through, supported by the honeyed notes, but very much drink up. Not as fresh as the previous bottle.

  November 18, 2022 - Deep golden yellow, still a dash of its original yellow sparkle, aged though still bright. Nose is citrus kerosene, heavy yet ethereal, sparkling, mature, orange rind, honey sweetness, sophisticated - wow! Tasting starts with a rigidly controlled acidity, it's there but has been told to sit in the corner. Flavours of zest and mid-ripe peaches appear, it's still taut, refined, the acidity has receded but it still provides the precise framework. This wine is 5 years past its drinking window (2017), but stored in perfect conditions, is fantastic. Although there is a hint of flatness, this is very good.

  Hints of kerosene and bacon fat on the nose.
  Lemon lime sherbet high acid palate which is youthful and long.
