Drinking nicely now with a little bottle age. Straw colour in the glass, not too dark. Lovely nose of peaches which follows onto the palate - peaches, honey and apricots. Perfect with pan fried cod and crème frâiche / mussel broth. Floral, slightly off dry and in the drinking window.

Haven't had one of these for while. Not unpleasant but on a downward curve for me - the fruit is starting to taste a little cooked and the wine is losing it's balance. Bit of a stewed fruit bomb incoming so won't hang around with the last bottle....

Delicious white wine to start Easter Sunday lunch. Smoky and floral; with a lovely flinty mineral edge. Hard to identify as Sauvignon Blanc - I would have called it as an Alto Adige Pinot Bianco blend. Great wine and getting better with age.
