March 9, 2021 - Lovely medium pale golden hue, nose is soft, but hints of both golden and green apples & almonds.
Age has likely benefited this for those who thought there was too much oak. The oak and tannins are subtle, but leave a nice hint of vanilla and spice. Acidity is balanced enough to counter the oak, but not pucker you're face. All in all, a very quaffable, easy drinking white wine, perfect for a fall evening in front of the bonfire or after Easter dinner in the spring!.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 9, 2020 - Oog: Helder en vol, kleur bleekgoud.
Neus: Zuiver en vol tot intens. Aroma nog steeds acacia honing, veel geel fruit en zachte toets van eik en vanille zonder te storen.
Mond: Goede balans tussen molligheid en zuren met aangename middellange afdronk. Blijft een van mijn favorieten en kan nog een jaartje ouderen. Prijs kwaliteit prima. -

May 9, 2020 - Tropical fruits, citrusy, medium acidity. Too much oaky tones of vannila and caramel for me without balance. Not my cup of coffee.
