February 9, 2023 - Light lemon in the glass. Pronounced nose of lime, lemon, peach, nectarine and just a hint of petrol. Easy, straightforward rizza where everything is in balance, but there's not much depth to.

February 13, 2016 - Gylden gul. Flott tropisk nese. Veldig forførende. Fruktig, preges av moden pære og gult eple. En del sødme. Syren er heller mot den beskjedne siden uten at vinen er slapp. Ekstremt lang. Drikkes veldig bra uten matfølge.
Dag 2:
Mer tydelig sitrus/friskhet i utgangen en første dag. Stort sett helt uendret. En knallbra kosevin, som drikkes fint alene! Produsenten leverer år etter år, og 2012 er intet unntak. Gi den et par timer i karaffel.1 person found this helpful Comment -

April 29, 2015 - Very subdued nose eventually yielding green pineapple laced with citrus fruits, bit of ripe tangerine and a selection of white flowers and apple blossom waiting in the wings.
Medium+ bodied and medium sweetness, it has enough acidity to retain good balance, it's not cloying or sickly in any way. Powerful initial flavour, though still very tight and quite linear, it was nevertheless very enjoyable. A touch of tangerine on the mid palate and some spiciness in the finish, very much a glimpse of whats to come.
Went very well with the selection of cheese that accompanied it especially the Gruyere.
I only had the one bottle, but would want to revisit this wine in about 3 - 4 well cellared years if I had more.
