June 3, 2022 - A beautiful dessert wine in its sweet spot at a fraction of the price of more prestigious estates and vintages, this is highly recommended.

December 27, 2020 - Intensily sweet, exotic. Perfect with foie gras, standalone a bit monotonous.

December 25, 2019 - Mid yellow. Fairly light nose, creamy and high toned. Sweet taste, a bit simple, rather dilute. Pleasant enough but entirely forgettable. Glad I got it so cheap! [Natural cork; 14% abv; Marks & Spencer, reduced to £5, widely available for ~£20].

December 1, 2019 - Dark yellow to golden color. The nose is still very fresh with classical botrytis character. Sweet but not cloying, with good acid balance. No rush to drink but I am not sure it will improve further.
