Plenty of oak but a bit disjoint. After storing the opened bottle two nights in the fridge it felt even more disjoint, and it seemed to had developed a rather strange chemically taste and aroma. Won't be buying this again.

Pale gold. Sweet fruity nose with nectarine and tangerine zest, backed with a little bit of woody oak. Medium bodied; a bit of early waxyness from the semillon, still with good zippy acidity. Apple juice, peach, a light nuttiness and a little tropical fruit on the palate. Vanilla and hazlenut on the finish. Good, I think this will improve with age. PS. After 48 hours started to show some pineapple and banana flavours.

Wine Education Service - Hidden Gems of Bordeaux (LSE): Bright lime-gold. A quite welcoming fragrance, flowery, some tyoical sauvignon blanc notes, restrained. Dry but not astringent, very refreshing, undemanding, with or without food, quite long.

Ok white Graves. A touch of oak on the nose with a fair bit of melon. The same flavours come thought in a fairly simple oaky way.

Decent wine though far from spectacular, didn't have the nose or complexity you would hope from good white Bordeaux.
