April 25, 2024 - PNP from an 375 ml bottle. Apricot nose, moderately sweet palate, fairly flat and lacking in acid. Just ok.

April 23, 2024 - Whilst not my favourite dessert wine you can’t argue with the quality.
Beautiful rich dark golden colour, very string nose of honey & marmalade which it certainly delivers for a good length in the mouth with a rich unctous coating. May not suit those who want more delicate with acid present. -

March 4, 2024 - From half bottle. Apricot, orange marmalade, a little slightly candied orange peel, vanilla. Juicy acidity, the wine is sweet with flavours of apricot, vanilla, a little cream, the marmalade note less present here. S'okay.

January 29, 2024 - Pretty much where it was a couple years ago: delicious and on a superb trajectory. Complex with ever-emerging depth but still plenty bright. Lovely.

December 24, 2023 - Popped the cork an hour before serving and that was about right. A supremely balanced wine with a lasting finish. I’ve been following this wine since 2012 but sadly this was my last, at least for now. This is in a highly enjoyable phase which is in or near its prime and will drink well for a couple of decades plus.
