Golden colour, wax lanolin and apple nose with classic baked apple flavours. My last bottle, still lovely, still a touch keen on the acidity but now fully mature. This was best at around 7-8 years of age.

Gosh this was good. More advanced than last year which was a bit of a worry, taking on darker hues but no oxidation just classic dry Chenin aromas of Apple wax and lanolin. Classic, lovely bruised apple flavour, properly mineral. A treat.

Another great bottle. Classic Apple flavoured Chenin. Now at peak I think.

Lovely bottle, high acidity but superb apple flavours. Medium. Tastes fully ready now. Becoming more golden.

Ripe apples, wet wool and bags of Chenin character. Juicy wine, rich but nice balance. Again excellent.
