  J'aurais pu passer ce blanc à l'aveugle et la majorité aurait callé Bourgogne dans les 30 premières minutes.
  Ce vin est impeccable après 17 ans en bouteille (twist cap)!
  Du fruit blanc (poire, pomme) en masse, tire un peu exotique (ananas) en se réchauffant.
  Minéralité présente++, finale complexe.
  Bravo.

  Tremendously balanced and a point. Reinforces my view about a) the age worthiness of the Estate wine and b) my preference for this over Hunting Hill, Coddington, etc

  Kumeu River Masterclass (PWS Melbourne): Medium gold. Nose showing full development. Has aged pretty well but something just not quite in full balance. Shows that the Estate can certainly hold its own with age, but based on this tasting my preference would be to drink these about 4-5 yrs post-vintage.

  A wine with zip. Beautiful bouquet of pears and pineapple. Still good acidity, stuctured, strong mid palate, bright, lively. Mellwoed out significantly since last drank about 2 years ago. A good example of how a white wine can improve with aging. Loved it. Too bad it's my last bottle.
