On the nose: Lots of butter, flinty minerals and lemon marmalade.
On the palate: Yellow apples, citrus, flinty slightly reductive minerals, stone fruits, quite a big amount of butter and creaminess. But it is kept up by a good amount of fresh acidity and lemon. Good medium length finish.
This one was quite a surprise for me, since last time I had this producer I wasn't that impressed. Really enjoyed this one quite on the oaky side of the spectrum, but it had enough freshness to back it up. And I enjoyed the slightly reductive flinty minerals that were present in a small amount. It isn't the most complex wine but very enjoyable certainly for the price.

Appearance: clear, medium lemon Nose: Clean, medium intense, lemon, lime, vanilla, lychee, orange marmelade, yoghurt. Palate: Dry, medium acidity, medium alcohol, medium+ body, medium intense, medium+ finish. Melon, lychee, white pepper, tomato leaf.
This is a very good quality wine; primary fruits are well presented and balanced and matched by sufficient acidity; the wine has a nice length. To be an outstanding wine it would need to be more complex. Suitable for bottle ageing; there is a hint of tertiary aromas (orange marmelade) alerady developing and sufficient acidity to support further development.
