Very intense. Loads of new oak, vanilla and oaky aromas. Pear drops, white flowers, ripe peach. Hint of sugar (4 g?), high acidity, searing. Med alcohol (13,5%), evident after a pannel of OZ Semillons. Fatty, unctous. Med+ finish, with a hint of alcohol and the first notes of oxidation (dried mango, overripe fruit, first time I notice this in this vintage).

Someone before me wrote dessert wine. I don't think so. Classic dry white Bordeaux. Rich, creamy (Semillon), and very, very yellow. Lemons, lemon zest, and fleshy apricots and peaches and cream. Deep straw yellow colour, yellow aromas, yellow on palate. Rich. Very nice.

Nice dessert wine; pleasant aromas of guavas, honey, kiwifruits, lychees, and white peaches in the nose; the palate, acidic, crisp, and refreshing with honey and tropical fruits, but lacking some structure; the finish, fruity yet a bit short with some bitter orange peels; overall, 88-89 points; would be interesting to see how this wine evolves in a few years.

Fresh and silky and exceptional value. Citrus and lemon notes, and an wonderful finish. Lovely wine.
