April 12, 2014 - Pineapple and blackberries on the nose, fresh and with hints of peach, muscat, gooseberries, salty sea spray and general gorgeousness.
Palate is full, intense and layered with acidity, oaky velvet mouthfeel and green apples.

August 31, 2013 - Markant intensitet med duft av solbærblad, sitrus, stikkelsbær og mineraler. Medium+ syre, medium kropp og medium+ konsentrasjon. Fortsatt ung. Smak av mineraler, urter, lime og grapfrukt. Medium lengde.

August 28, 2013 - Flight 5, Loire, Wine 4 (blind): The wine was pale yellow-green in colour and offered gooseberry, lime, grapefruit, elderflower and some chamomile on the nose. On the palate the wine showed gooseberry, lime, grapefruit and a mild herbaceousness, paired with high but somewhat weary acidity and very good length. The medium- to full-bodied wine is ready to drink and should continue to drink well for another few years.
