  March 4, 2024 - A few pearls at Langtons recently, including this single bottle. Great fill and cork. Reasonable colour, almost young Sauternes like with no browning. Nose and palate are both developed but recognisably riesling, delicious, limes and honey, and with the mouthfeel of a Spatlase, but bone dry. Perfect salmon wine 17.75.

  December 31, 2023 - cork was saturated with wine sitting on top between it and the capsule and there was ullage into the neck so cork failure. bottle showed oxidation and got a hint of what it might have been but it looked like apple juice and we tipped it down the sink. either needed drinking 10 years earlier or to be put under Stelvin.

  June 15, 2017 - Farewell for now: Honey, ginger, woody notes and pear. Good richness on the palate, still holding with a fresh element as well. I like the flow and balance. Near to its peak now - I had this once over 10 years ago, and this showed significantly better than that bottle, which presumably had some storage issues.

  June 15, 2017 - Quick Notes From a Memorable Night in Sydney (Cirrus, Barangaroo): I loved this treasure of a bottle: lime, flint, petrol, butterscotch in layers of flavor waves, plus enough acidity to hold things together very, very well.

  December 13, 2008 - Fresh and inviting with pure lime fruit flavours, a little toast and crème brulee and a nice steely backbone.
