The wine has a deep golden color, with aromas of yellow apples, apricot, dried pineapple, with pithy pears and bitter blood orange. There is a salty, lemony edge, in the mouth medium to full bodied, with very dry limestone and minerality , the wine yet solid is beginning to show its age with a touch of oxidation & bitterness. . It is dynamic and French in enjoyable textures , yet the dryness of the fruit is a bit distracting and has more navel orange peal on the finish. If in your cellar I would finish it off in the next year , but if this was personally stored you may have more time. There is body & refreshment.

Nose of elder, lemon and yellow apples also with a tone of butter and minerals as in taste. Well composed and pure taste with medium body but not so long aftertaste. Good Value for Money.

Nice nose of lemon heads. with a lot of toast. Matchstick, butter. Entry good with lemon. Flint. A lot of minerals. Finish is a bit harsh. But pretty good for its level. Nose - 4.5/6, Palate - 4.5/6, Finish - 3.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 13.5/20.

Uncomplicated and well balanced. Smooth with a hint of sweetness but way in the back seat. Will pair well with almost any food. Great wine for the price.
