This is better than I remember. Nice balance and a nice passion fruit under tone, petrol on the end. Last time I tried this it was too much passion fruit, maybe the extra year has mellowed it out. Quite good with Asian or Thai food

Firstly, this needs at least 15-20 minutes of air to open up (initially it is thin, acidic, mineral).
With air and not too cold the nose is strong white flowers (honeysuckle?), a tart fruit (unripe pineapple?); the palate is crisp, more of the white flowers and citrus, a slightly creamy note mid-palate and then a clean and quite long finish which is crisp and a little minerally.
Overall a pleasant, but not big, white Bordeaux, and OK QPR at the ~US$31 that I paid.

Lemon and some peach-honey; layered; long elegant finish.

Couleur jaune doré intense. Nez plutôt décevant, sans envergure. Mais en bouche il est surprenant avec arômes de poire ,miel et abricot. Très bon vin

Decanter Fine Wine Encounter (The Landmark, London): Ripe gooseberry, a little peachy, cream, stone fruit, apple. Juicy, fleshy, a little lozenge quality, creamy textured, very pleasant.
