  Lime, petrol. Medium-plus acidity. Went well with curry.

  Excellent wine, developed as far as you would want. A bigger wine than expected and welcome it was, too. Equal weight to a 10 or 12 y.o. Lovedale Semillon on the night.

  Rating this wine is predictive in the extreme. Very astringent wine with much acid and balancing fruit. Very austere just now and probably opened 15 years too soon. Sampled the second half after rebottling @375 ml on Day 3 - much improved approachability. Might leave the other one for a decade or so.

  C & C 3/3. Nose 4.5/7; attractive but muted. Palate 7.5/10; Extremely tight with so much acid the fruit might or might not be there. I guess it is and I expect I will rate the next bottle higher; maybe much higher if I wait minimum 10 years. It will no doubt go 20.
