Felt it was time to drink up so not paying too much attention until after the food... Complex, honeyed, nutty, floral. Some bitter elements and just enough acid to give this some shape. Finish med/long. Not vibrant, fresh or lively but very satisfyingly mature, with lots of stories to tell.

White blossom, perfumed, slight citrus and nutty notes. Waxy textured and quite bitter on the palate with no real fruit - a bit dumb and a bit old. I'm usually very good at keeping on top of what is where and how old it is but this one slipped the net. Should have drunk it 3 years ago.

Too old but still delicious. Kerosene on the nose, still some stone fruit and acid on the palate. Not at its best, but a very good aged Viognier.

This one much fresher, lighter and open. Flavours are more distinct and harmonious. Feels two years younger. Good.
