Beautiful medium golden Color. This wine Is beautifully deceiving. The nose is Very sugary with lots of peach and pineapple and you would think this is a dessert wine. Med acidity, Med alcohol, Med body, pronounced flavours, Med+ finish. Very fruity mouth, a bit creamy and thick, with hay, butter, petrol like tertiary notes. There is some oxidation - just makes it more interesting. I highly recommend all chateau Sixtine wines. And they are very nice people when you visit them so do not hesitate.

Big and bold oily fruit. Toasty and extremely tasty. Good balance and long long taste. Hard to resist. Love the style but from previous experience with this wine I would drink up soon as it is at its peak right now.

very clear light yellow. Pure white fruit and floral nose. Not a hint of oxidation. Melon, pear, talc and white flowers. Dry pear and flint flavours. Stunning.

This wine has really turned for the worst since last year. Color is now dark gold, very oily, beeswax on the nose. Poured it down the sink
