A different bottle today. More closed. Light gold colour. Honey and blue cheese on the nose. Still has fine oak and honey flavours. Hint of lemon and nutmeg. Rich, but with precise, balancing acidity. Really mellow and soft overall. No idea how long this will last, but no hint of oxidation. Really fine.

Matured yet vibrantly developed wine that had honeyed undertones and meaursault richness and even Chablis grand cru level minerality and schist. Wholesome fulfilling wine.

Drinks and Cards (London): Full yellow. Toasty aroma, nutmeg, touch of blackcurrant. Nutty flavour, honey, lots of spice. Lovely.

Bright gold colour. Lovely honey and oak aroma. Tastes of oak and honey too. Hint of herbs and faintly of blackcurrant. Dusty. Very complex.

Slow oxygenated. A good bottle with nice melon, oak and white flower mix. Fully mature but classic from a magnum. Good with Xmas turkey.
