PnP. Intens aroma av blomster og kattepiss. Blåste noe av etter en strafferunde i karaffel, men helt borte ble det ikke. Noe voks og stikkelsbær i munnen, frisk selv om den er blitt noen år gammel. Drar på seg litt mer kompleksitet med luft, veldig godt kjøp som var tilgjengelig i 2022. Utmerket til hvite asparges med hollandaise-saus.

I honestly can't tell if this wine is flawed and way past its prime or if it is was actually made to taste this way and it would be pleasing and unique to someone in an alternative universe. The nose is a striking melange of old rose water, grapefruit, cat urine (probably a cat with a urinary tract infection), and sweaty gym socks. In the mouth, it is still recognizable as a SB with grass, citrus, bitter acidity, lightness, and floral notes. The finish is bitter, sea salty, and sort of nasty. The prior bottle was definately way off, toxic, and undrinkable; it went down the drain. This one, however, I am still working with, mostly because it tastes like something from another world. Not the sort of world I would want to live in mind you.

Gold
Intense aromas of fully ripe mango and blossoms. Good intensity with gooseberry exit. Hint of wax
Complex, balanced and quite long.
Very good qpr

Toxic smelling and tasting. Down the drain, and (naturally) went for another bottle.
