Straightforward tropical and stone fruit flavors, minimal petrol on the finish. Pleasant sipper, but not the wine I thought it should be at this point.

Pretty and complex aromatic - petrol notes emerging and layered on to sweet apple, honey and coconut notes. Rich and sweet on the palate. Lower acid profile and the wine is a bit heavy.

Shows pretty basic and correct with a lower acid profile, which is likely the vintage signature. Tons of primary fruit and some wet rock notes. Simpler. Not much depth. But enjoyable none the less.

Big sweet nose of baked apple, tropical fruits and minerals. Palate is richly fruited and sweet. Moderate acidity provides some offset to sweetness, but not enough cut to create verve and tension. Medium plus finish. Okay, but really needs more acidity.

#19-04. Slight green tinge. Slightly spicy nose, with some notes of gummy bears, green apples, lots of sulfur and a hint of minerality. Quite effervescent and full-bodied, and definitely showing a bit of ripeness. Somewhat lacking in the complexity department, this is amazingly yummy and makes for a great refreshing drink for quaffing.
