Deep golden yellow. Oaky nose. Some mown grass, cream and toast. Oaky and creamy. Happily this was in a large format and had some age on it. Would have been overbearing while young, but the age made it very nice.

Pale green-yellow. Some oak, strong pear, and light grapefruit on the nose. Pear dominates with grapefruit and quince. Lemon emerges on the finish, which lingers quite a while. Buttery, creamy texture. Good acids. This is a much better wine than I expected given the cost and supposed over the drinking apex status (and my general aversion to whites).

Drank surprisingly well, despite being in what I thought the tail end of its drinking window. Creamy, oaky and very obvious camarel taste. Very good wine!

Good quality every day wine. Never disappoints, especially for the price.

Very creamy and full with a lot of presence on the palate. Little fruit, lots of oak.
