  Taking on a rich, oily but still fresh character. These wines really do last well, they grow into a perfect balance. Pair with any food, this one stood up to a fatty rib steak without sweating.

  I felt going into this that it might be somewhere between its apricot youthfulness and honeyed old age. For the most part it was, with a little bit of both characters.

  Medium yellow, light nose of brioche, apple, citrus, nuts. Seems to be showing more oxidative elements. Light-medium body, medium intense lanolin and honey on the palate, still tangy acidity that hasn't seemed to integrate, herbal-tinged medium length finish. Quite impressive and went well with a fennel-marinated halibut and grilled squid.

  Medium yellow. Low-moderate intense nose of citrus, honeysuckle, wax, wet wool, honey. Dry, moderate acidity, light-medium body, moderate intense cheese rind and funk on the palate along with citrus, balance remains slightly tart, with medium length. Quite good, opened up with air and went well with risotto.

  Aromatic, leather, hazelnut, lanolin, kiwi and mineral nose. Dry and round with good flavour replays and a long finish. Great character, flavour and value.
  4.5/5
