Similar to last bottle but even more fresh with no notes of oxidation. Hence the bump up to 93 pts. Drank the last bit on second day and remained fresh.

Aged Chenin is a great thing and this didn’t disappoint. Golden color, honeyed nose and fruit, touch of oxidation, rich viscous texture and long finish. Went great with a range of dishes, incl cod fritters, sunchokes, Brussels sprouts pizza, gem salad and more. At peak or slightly through it. Not sure I would hold for much longer.

Shocked! I’ve had some very tough experiences with this wineHowever the ‘07 has held up well. Light golden.over an hour the nose has developed into something that smells like honey. Medium weight. Enjoyable.

Drinking beautifully. No detailed notes but this was wide open and everything I would expect from this producer. Leans ripe for the vineyard in this vintage. Easy wine to love.
