Community Tasting Notes (10) Avg Score: 89.4 points

  • 4th bottle out of the 12 I bought in 2017.

    Colour: lemon (Much lighter than the first 3 bottles)
    Nose: medium intensity. Buttery, lemon, slight honey and vanilla, mineral, bread.
    Palate: full bodied. Medium acidity. Medium length.

    Was surprised by the colour, first 3 bottles were closer to medium gold. This one was still very fresh. Very good.

    So far the score out of 5 bottles I opened.
    - Oxidised and undrinkable 1
    - Oxidised very slightly and still nice to drink 1
    - mature and nearing end of life and nice to drink 2
    - Mature but still on the fresh side, very nice to drink 1

  • Colour: lemon/golden
    Nose - Immediately after opening: Muted sweet buttery.
    Nose - 1 hour later: lemon, creamy buttery. Nice.
    Palate: very full bodied. Medium acidity. Length is short.

    Good wine, absolute bargain at 220hkd. 2006 was way better in length complexity & intensity in comparison, but this was expected for 2003 I suppose.

  • After the other Burg that was oxidized, I was worried as this was certainly golden. On the nose a bit of vanilla, lemon, and a tiny bit of oak. On the palate? Full whoa. Balanced fruit, honey, verve. All there. Fantastic. thedrunkencyclist.com

  • Retail $55. I poured and the golden color scared me. A lot. I have had a bad run of pre-mox white Burgs and I thought “here we go again…” There was some oxidation here, but it was slight. Unfortunately so was the fruit. Very Good still, but not a lot more, sadly, which means I need to drink the other two bottles soon. Anyone want to help? In the name of science, of course. Good to Very Good. 86-88 Points. thedrunkencyclist.com
