  Green apples, rocks, stones, flowers, and orange rind mix with a dash of honeysuckle and caramel in the nose, leaving you with freshness and nuances of saffron, orange, apricot, and yellow citrus on the back end. Drink from 2023-2028.

  Old Bordeaux in Tokyo (Brasserie Paul Bocuse): With Chatters, Vintomas and Mats @Brasserie Paul Bocuse. Theme: Old Bordeaux.
  2023-04-01
  
  Fruit salad, pineapple and grilled coconut flakes. Acidity is restrained and the wine comes with a bit of a fatty mouth feeling. Fairly intense, short and tivoli-fruity.
  
  When the label was revealed, I was honestly surprised. This didn't come across as special. Not a very big step up from the hordes of white Graves.

  Cellartracker in the flesh with Stefan, Akiko, Mats & Tomas (Paul Boucasse, Tokyo): "Served blind.
  Medium minus intensity initially but, with agitation, cedar, sweet spice over a little apple, citrus, lemon, smidge of lime and, with time, a little butter. In the mouth it has medium plus intensity acidity, honey, muted fruit is slightly sour showing green apple, a little butter, plenty of textured burr, needs time to open, slight non-intrusive alcohol warmth. Hmm, fairly enjoyable.
  I didn't think this was from Pessac/Graves - it felt like a worked white from the Medoc from a prestigious producer and from the early noughties."

  Sunday Lunch - Greg & Sayo with friends (The Conservatory, Crown Wine Cellars, 18 Deep Water Bay Drive, Shouson Hill, Hong Kong): Two bottles served midway though a long Sunday lunch from a case I bought on release I shared with my mate. Light green-gold almost Sauvignon Blanc colour. Nose is lanolin and not much more except for faint sherbert lemons boiled sweets candy from childhood. Palate is half-burnt almonds. Very little length. Disappointingly unmemorable.

  Oxidation creeping in with notes of caramel but there is still enough freshness here to enjoy the wine. Pineapple, tangerine zest and lemon. Long and complex. Best drunk a few years ago, drink up.
