Served blind, identifiable as a Bordeaux Blanc. Has a good amount of stuffing for another few years. Drinking at peak in my opinion.

deeply colored, golden hue. opened up quickly in decanter and was singing... great mix of sb grassy lime and waxy lanolin, baking spices from new oak in background. on the palate high acids, lush midpalate, no phenolics, low alcohol. balanced wine with very good length, intensity and complexity, loads of finesse, a fine texture, excellent expression of place. clearly an excellent wine that is drinking at its peak.

Fairly strong colour but consistent with its age.
Ripe fruit and sweet spice fragrance.
Rich long palate, good acidity and length. Honey, citrus zest, tropical fruits, herbal and well integrated oak spice. Richly flavoured and pretty smooth, drinking beautifully.

Had at a restaurant, minimal notes. Fully mature. Bruised apple, apple pie with cinnamon, honey, hay.

Golden hue.
Totally clean, bright fragrance, lightly herbal with lemon and gentle oak spice.
Lemon curd, orange rind and a lovely gentle crushed herb spice. Fruit driven mainly. Soft and approachable with decent acidity leaving a crisp long finish. I’d say drinking ideally now.
