December 25, 2023 - Nose - mango, pineapple, lychee, some honeycomb
Palate - luscious and smooth, tropical fruits and honey, nice long finish
Really impressive in its youth. A lovely wine to drink and should age pretty nicely.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 31, 2023 - 2019 Bordeaux Tasting, MW tasting (Vintner's Hall, London): 89% Sem 9% SB 2% Musc, 14%
Light nose, like a dry white, rather oak forward, overripe quince, floral notes. Palate showing med body, very oaky, overripe tropical fruit, stone fruit, long finish. Strange -

January 31, 2023 - A good balance of fruit and acidity, nose of fresh green apple, pine and fresh-cut grass. However, the presence of a faint gasoline or plastic-ish nose was a bit odd to me. A value alternative to the more expensive d'Yquem.

November 13, 2022 - Just sick shit. Amazing balance of almost too ripe and juicy peaches slammed from behind with mineral laden acid. Floral finish. Amazing flourish to Wine and Hip Hop Fedtival. Thanks, Jermaine.

June 2, 2022 - 2017 Bordeaux wine tasting - we make a little exception for our dessert with this limited edition bottle from 2019 - at mezza9 in Singapore. Medium golden color. Pineapple, mango, very sweet and exotic fruit, and some wet stones on the nose. Med acidity, med body, med alcohol, Med flavor intensity, med finish. Very nice and thick wine, beautiful exotic fruits, i like the minerality as well, still young but already drinking very well. Recommend not to serve too cold so you pick up the full aromatic range of the wine.
