Golden colour, dry nice mousse and quite long. Bought 6 in December 2018. I thought this wine tasted great the following year, was less good 6 months ago, but this bottle, although mature, is really enjoyable. Will get some more next time I am near Tours!

Unknown disgorge date and not a great deal of pop when opened or bead in the glass. Lovely light golden colour though. Rich nose of nougat, yellow peaches, greenage. Palate is still pretty fresh, smooth, rich flavours of cashews, stone fruits, some lemon curd and quince too, finished with good acidity and good length. Enjoyable. Purchased for about $25AUD, so good QPR.

Did not inspire as it barely made a sound. Low carbonation. Estimated bottling would be around 1990 judging by the label. Deep gold colour, no mousse and little carbonation. Aromas of apple, musk, cinnamon. Smooth palate, some complexity, honey. Long finish. Great example of the longevity of chenin over chardonnay. 12% abv

Winery: Light nose, hint floral, minerals; clean, fresh. Not great.
