May 20, 2022 - This bottle was past its prime. When chilled and initially tasted, you could briefly enjoy the beauty that was this wine. There was a hint of oxidation that became more and more pronounced. Sadly, we watered the azaleas with the remainder of the bottle, which was my last of this vintage.
In its prime, it was a beauty!!!1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 8, 2019 - Medium intensity of colour that is gold to Amber. A floral nose. Citrus fruit, lemon and perfume. High acidity. Pronounced alcohol. Full bodied. Long finish. This was layered, balanced and whilst ready, should improve. The nose was a clear step up over the 2016 (which I didn't like) albeit the palate was quite similar. Shared by ST

March 8, 2019 - Golden yellow, very floral, papaya, very interesting nose, loved the nose, the palate didn’t compare though, very dry & austere

January 23, 2019 - Struck out tonight - 3 flawed white wines. This, a 2008 Les Plantiers du Haut Brion Blanc and a 2009 Mont Redon CNDP Blanc.
