December 10, 2014 - Past its prime for sure.
November 3, 2011 - Nose is tired with some wet wood aromas, nuttiness. Judging only from the nose I would dismiss this wine straight away but palate is still very powerful with high acidity and intense nutty and citrucy flavours.
November 2, 2011 - Much better in palate than nose which shows supressed friut,vegetality, oakiness and chips. Ripe and creamy with balancing acidity, forward fuit and generous alcohol.Evolved and mellow overall.
June 8, 2011 - Absolutely beautiful and delicious. Bouquet of starfruit, kiwi, mango and lemon oil. At this age, no grass on the nose. Balanced acid and tropical fruit on the palate. This is amazingly complex and delicious despite Parker saying it's old. Wish I had more.
December 31, 2010 - Smooth and subtle with overtones of melon and apple. The wine has an acidic mouthfeel on the finish, yet is elegant, not overpowering.
September 13, 2010 - Was wondering why this was such a strange, not very pleasant bottle, but then I see it's a 2006.
May 25, 2010 - Very nice, I might of waited a bit too long to open this; seemed a little past it's peak. but overall good quality and very drinkable.
January 21, 2010 - Pop and pour. Some pear on the nose. Grassy also. fairly big nose. Taste some citrus. My friend really liked this wine. May be a a little past its peak? Still very good. Have not tried with food yet, will see if that changes anything.
November 22, 2009 - Citrus nose, somewhat acidic. Not bad, though.
November 11, 2009 - Genka Wine Fair: (tasting in gen.ka wine fair) Mr Phelps has cheated here a little bit since he added an 8% of Semillon and 33% of new oak was used. A beautiful bright color. The nose is filled with ripe fruits while the mouth is so full and sweet, with enough acidity though to keep absolutely balanced. A medium aftertaste with fruits like pears and apricots appearing again. This is a quite good wine , but a rather expensive (33€).
