May 13, 2022 - Paul D's Graves Greats (Piccolino, Exchange Square, London): Served a little warmer than would be ideal but second pour after time in iced water helped it to show more. Some lime cordial on pouring later some lanolin and a certain rice pudding creaminess with just a touch of nutmeg.

May 13, 2022 - Glorious Graves at Piccolino (Piccolino, Exchange Square, London): Pale lemon. Lime, grapefruit, spice - intense. Medium bodied, grapefruit, spice, touch of mineral, hint of creaminess, crisp acidity, long finish. Excellent.

May 6, 2022 - Still tight. Hints at broad compkex white and yellow fruit with lush texture. Bracing minerality and it’s core. I will wait 3-5 years for next bottle.

April 22, 2022 - Consistent notes as before. One of my favorite Bordeaux whites. Pyrazine and fine roasted nuts on the nose. Citrus, pineapple and green apple create long lingering finish. Has some prime time ahead of it.
