    July 10, 2016 - High in alcohol, low in acidity. Quite powerful.
    Some honey, yellow fruits...
    Nah, not very impressed.

    May 15, 2015 - Slightly honeyed leading to a waxy mouthfeel. Acidity could do with a notch or two but I really like the length. It's all about the citrus fruit though and this is a very pleasant and interesting wine to enjoy now.

    April 3, 2015 - Hefty stuff, high in alcohol. They've left in quite some CO2 gaz making the wine almost "perlant", which is in strange contrast to the heavy, fat taste (on the slightly oxydative side) that still retains a little freshness. A bit unbalanced on the whole.

    A strange contrast with previous notes as well. I don't get the lemony side of this wine. Probably this is not a faulty bottle, but simply this wine on an evolutionary fast-track.

    October 3, 2014 - Lemon and bright on the eye. Nose is very fresh with nostril flairing citrus fruits of grapefruit and lime. The palate delivers more citrus with lime and orange leading the way with mouth watering acidity. It has a long, zesty, slighlty sour finish, like sucking a lime after a tequila slammer! Excellent quality wine and a great price at around £12.

    March 24, 2014 - Mineral and zinging with flavours. Ends a touch clipped on the finish.
