Deep gold. Moderate to powerful aromas of dried fig, marmalade, almond, caramel, with a hint of baking spice. Warm spread of sour orange on the palate, medium plus acids, low alcohol, very long finish.

Pale gold. Pronounced sherried notes on the nose with dusty soil tones and dried apricots. Very clean light lemony fruit on the palate, high acids, light body, medium finish. 12.5% alcohol. Very strict and pure. [On the second night I detected a faint corked note.]

Struggling to understand this wine. Definately some oxidation and hints of sherry but tastes thin to me. Some have said good things and I am told that these have very long lives so hoping more time in my cellar transforms. I agree with other notes that this tastes like sour cider right now. No rating at this time.

Nutty oxidative flavors; good tension (especially when cold). Very pleasant.

Nutty, oxidised notes on the nose. In the mouth still quite rich with some sherry flavours, good acidity and grip. Evolving nicely.
