February 4, 2022 - Outstanding colour, intense amber/orange; on nose lots of character, complex; on palate sweetness drops away, marked acidity; hard edged finish.
Worthwhile buy to try. -

May 7, 2010 - Dinner with Julian and Brian (富瑤酒家): Extraordinary fragrance of spring flowers, honeyed fruits, vanilla and creme brulee. Remarkable balance of richness and clarity in the mouth. Lovely.

March 2, 2010 - 1962 Bordeaux horizontal (Institute of Directors, London): Fresh, youthful, mouthwatering nose, coconut and apricots on the palate, brown sugar finish. Glorious

December 7, 2008 - Just splendid. At first, thought it was a touch corked, but after an hour in the glass opened up to reveal the orange zest notes mentioned below. Also picked up weight...this can go for a while. A success in a highly regarded Sauternes vintage.
