Medium lemon yellow. An evolved mature buttery nose with plenty of citrus and a hint of elderflower. Soft and rich on the attack. A very mature feel to it, though not over the hill, and actually improving as the bottle is open. Still a nice elegant fruit, balnced well. Bit hollow on the middle but finishes well. Very Good.

Pale to medium straw colour. Pleasant herbaceous nose with floral notes. Light and quite fresh on the attack. But fills very well into something quite rich and definitely very full and rounded. Very clean. Lots of character. Very Good.

A mid, very yellow straw. Very odd nose with artificial scents dominating - lemony melon crossed with bubble gum. Light on the attack. Fills quickly. Very odd. Distinctly lees-y. Possibly a bit of secondary fermentation, though there's no trace of petillance. Full flavoured, very dry, rather herbaceous - a sort of wet lawn flavour. It almost has a gewurz hint to the middle. This is most probably a faulty bottle, but not unpleasant by any means. Good.

Slightly muddy medium straw. Good nose: quite serious with lots of depth - sort of grassy, greeny, slightly melony. Fair legs. Light, fresh attack, almost muscadet-like. But fills, not overly, but well. Quite rich and buttery on the palate. Then some fresh, fruity acid on the finish and after. No harshness on the finish. Good length. Very Good.
