  My wife liked it but I found it very disappointing at first. It had the flavours of unripe honeydew melon that I mentioned in my comments on earlier vintages. Great in a melon but not in a wine.
  It improved over time in the glass (and with/after food) and began to show some of the attractive features of earlier, very good, vintages. A compromise score. My earlier very positive view of this wine over more than a decade has been altered in recent years. Time will tell. 87-

  Wonderful chardy as always, fresh, flavourful with notes of white fruits, some vanilla and spices, and good acidity delivering a great balanced wine.

  The wine looks light gold colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like lime, grapefruit, honeydew, pineapple, jasmine leaves and eucalyptus. It tastes like pineapple, grapefruit and eucalyptus. The body is medium/full. The wine has satin-like texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has high acidity.
