Given as a gift and thought I'd give a whirl -- mistake. Nice dark blackish purple color ... swirls nice ... nose is over oaked. Taste is "Meh."Tight and unbalanced notes of cassis blackberry and oak. An example here of you get what you pay for.

wonderfully flush on the front palate with big heavy big full berry and oak notes. Smooth finish. Low tannins. Incredibly drinkable.

Ordered by the glass at a restaurant in LHR. Way too expensive I thought 14 GBP/ 250mL but client was paying so what the heck. Nose - Notes of honey, flower and lavender soap. Citrus in the front palate, followed by floral mid palate. Acid and tanins finish nicely. Really well balanced. An exceptionally long finish for a white of this age. Very well crafted wine. Incredibly drinkable and yet still sophisticated.
