August 26, 2020 - Deep straw in color. Knows of acacia, grapefruit, and citrus. Taste of lanolin, yeast, autumnal spices, and green peaches. Rich and unctuous with lovely structure, well into the secondary flavors. And its peak, drink over the next 3 to 5 years.

July 30, 2012 - Rather a Szepsy than a Hárslevelű. Golden yellow with a greenish hue. Not much fruit on the nose, but so concentrated and deep. Straw, roasted nuts, in the background some dried peach, dried pineapples and flowers. Smells a bit like a Burgundy. Full bodied on the palate, broading, with a creamy texture. Restrained acidity, highish alcohol. Dense and serious, but lacks fruit flavors, rather salty, a bit austere. Incredible aftertaste, so long and intense. Will last, still almost young. There is good chance that it can further gain in complexity with additional few years in the bottle.

August 4, 2011 - The bottle was opened for two days. Nose is serious, with hay, citrus notes, even tangerine, and a touch of caramel. Full bodied on the palate, it has weight, concentration, with flavors of lemon, exotic fruits and again some caramel. Medium acidity, long finish. Drinks well now but will last for a few years more easily.
