  Medium store color, it appears of taking out a bit of weight over the last couple of years. Melon/stone fruit nose.
  Delicious. Loads of unripe Stonefruit, mango, and passionfruit. All supported by a flinty minor, serenity and bright acidity. This one has developed well in a bottle, and is drinking Beautifully right now. This one continues to be one of the great white wines of the world, in my opinion

  World-class white, refreshing, terrific finish with a pleasant touch of muskiness, popped and poured and enjoyed with steamed Maine lobster. From prior experience, more bright acidity in its youth, but more nuanced at this age.

  From 75cl, DIAM10 closure, opened but not decanted 3 hours, too much, as it turned out, as the wine turned a flabby in the glass with further aeration. Next time P+P... Saline and struck match aromatics; quite full entry lacking the precise citrus and mineral action previously recorded (as on 06.07.2023). Very good nonetheless. 89P

  Off the beaten track: Good intensity on the nose, savory, spicy and mineral. Some attractive hints of burnt honey like I often experience with Assyrtiko. Quite full bodied on the palate, again with good intensity also on the mid palate. Solid length, savory. Driking well but will live long. 17.5/20

  This was good. Crisp and lively. Light but flavorful.
